It downloads videos from a page you specify and converts the video either into mpg which plays on most, if not all, computers or mp4 format which plays on video iPods.

The free version supports only youtube but that should probably be enough for most users out there. The author offers plugins for five video sites that cost $7.99: dailymotion, blip.tv, google video, metacafe and myspace. Most users probably don’t need the plugin to enable the other websites.

iTube will automatically import any downloaded and converted movie to iTunes. The movie will then automatically sync with your video iPod (if you have one). You can still play the files in iTunes if you don’t have a video iPod.

Itube needs the .net framwork from Microsoft. It will check if the framwork is installed on your system, ff you do not have it installed it will prompt to download it.
