Download YouTube videos as AVI or MOV files directly

There are numerous methods for downloading and saving YouTube videos on your computer almost all of them save the video in the FLV ( Flash Video ) format which is not supported by default in most media players.

Vixy.net, a new service attempts to eliminate that. It takes the URL of the YouTube video and allows you to download the video in other formats.


The different formats which are supported are :

• AVI for Windows ( DivX + MP3 )
• MOV for Mac ( MPEG4 + MP3 )
• MP4 for iPod / PSP ( MPEG4 + AAC )
• 3GP for mobiles ( MPEG4 + AAC )
• MP3 ( audio only )

In case you are puzzled by the last option, Vixy.net also lets you extract just the audio part of the video and save it as MP3. Useful, if you want just the song and not the video.

Whats more ? This tool also works for other video sharing sites like Metacafe, Google Video, MSN Soapbox etc..
