Minitube: Youtube Player and Downloader for Linux Ubuntu 11.04

Hey guys! Just spent a half day search for a Youtube downloader for my Ubuntu Natty. Previously you can just copy the video from the temp folder to save it. But maybe due to copyright issue, that is not possible now.

What I found was MINITUBE. It is actually available in Ubuntu Software center. Just type minitube in the search box and install.

You can watch youtube videos even without flash support. And this is the greatest thing: YOU CAN DOWNLOAD THE VIDEOS using MINITUBE. Just search for your favorite videos and hit the down load button and it will automatically save the video to your VIDEOS folder, that's it --no hassle at all. The installer is just 600KB or more in size.
