YouTube routinely makes changes on their server to stop people from downloading their videos. If you are receiving "file not found(404)" or "unknown download error" it is possible that YouTube downloads are broken.

We have just tested this feature before writing this post and we are able to download videos without any issues using the latest version (3.01).

It''s not working because You Tube doesn't want it to work... exactly as they planned. They would like you to stop stealing things. Are you a thief? I don't mean to be accusatory here... just a question we must all ask of ourselves.

It's just the internet... I pay for it so it's all free? No. there are intellectual (what an oxymoron... look it up) rights involved.

Here's an incredible piece of "life" advice. Find the source.

Why steal an imitation Rolex?
