General FAQ
- Q: What is BYTubeD?
-
BYTubeD stands for "Bulk YouTube video Downloader" (or "Batch YouTube
video Downloader"). It is a
Firefox extension
that helps users in downloading YouTube videos in bulk (i.e., downloading
multiple YouTube videos at once in batch mode with a few clicks). It can be
used to download all/selected YouTube videos on any page which has some
YouTube video links. It makes the job of downloading YouTube playlists easy.
- Q: Is it free?
-
Yes. Not only is it free to use, but you can also get its
source code,
modify it, distribute it or make money out of it subject to the terms of
GNU General
Public License version 3.

- Mozilla Firefox 4.0 or above

Support Related FAQ
- Q: Why don't you add support for MP3?
-
YouTube offers only video files. Providing a feature to download just the audio
means the maintenance of a third party data center where the YouTube videos for
the requests will have to be downloaded and converted in to MP3. And this data
center should act as a server for the audio files created there by. This whole
process is quite expensive. And I do not have resources for that.
- Q: Why don't you write a version for Google Chrome?
-
I really don't have time for that. If you are interested in porting BYTubeD to
Chrome, please contact me. We can discuss how to go about it.
