They are neither now work, nor the download speed is really slow. But this one works the best, and it can even download the HD YouTube video. After you download and install this YouTube Downloader on your Mac, when you watch YouTube video with your Safari browser, there will be a Download button show up at the top left corner of the YouTube video.
