The planets have completed their alignment and as according to the prophecy Bootblock has emerged from the seedy underworld of Scunthorpe to shower us with virtual goodness.

YouChoob is a tiny wee application that takes a YouTube page URL and downloads the video to your harddrive. It is entirely clientside and not dependent on any external website (except for YouTube, obv) and does exactly what it says on the tin, though v1.00 has a few quirks:

• Links must be for http://www.youtube.com and not http://youtube.com
• Only one video stream can be downloaded at any time (*)
• No default filename is generated for your video file

Despite that, it’s a quick, reliable and easy way to download YouTube videos.

UPDATE: v1.01 available. Download it here:
