    Uhhh, if there’s a video that you don’t want to be held hostage to intrusive ads or buffering during a bad internet connection, realplayer can help with that.

      Interesting. So you can watch arbitrary web videos using it? That’s so different than how it started!

        Uhhh, the browser extension offers to download from pretty much any youtube video, but not always all. If there’s one that won’t download, it’s worth trying again after the next realplayer update.

        The videos end up in my real player videos folder, from whence I can watch them uninterrupted.
