  That's not the point swombat is trying to make. You can easily rip a Youtube clip into MP3, or just download the video for later playing. I even have an app on my iPhone, McTube, that allows me to do exactly that. YouView on Mac gives you the same option. I used these apps to cache my youtube subscription overnight, as I have unlimited internet after midnight, but otherwise I am limited to 15gigs/mo. The point is, you can't just as easily rip content from Spotify, Pendora, or any of the other streaming services.

    I can always play a song and record it. YouTube doesn't even allow downloading in 1080p anymore. Enough with this idiotic copyright bullshit. If you don't want people to copy your stuff, stop publishing it! We don't need copyright. Why is the law enforcement that I pay for with my tax money working to prevent alice from copying something bob put out in public? Now if bob took alice's secret documents, and put them out for the world to see I can understand. However, this copyright mess is out of control. Please... Let's put an end to this nonsense.

      YouTube doesn't even allow downloading in 1080p anymore. Offtopic, but what do you mean YouTube doesn't "allow" downloading in 1080p? If you can watch it in 1080p, you can download it in 1080p.

        It might be possible, I don't know but it is definitely not convenient.

      What are you talking about? I just downloaded a clip vie YouView from YouTube in 4K, just to see if it would work.

        Try downloading one of the videos from a channel name that ends in Vevo...
