CNET Editors' review
Ook? Video Ook! is preferable to similar Firefox plug-ins because, simply put, it lets you go bananas with videos. It offers one-click downloading and allows you to save the embedded clip to your hard drive in its native format: Flash video, WMP, or MOV. Ook? Video Ook! also saves the latest YouTube trend with its original name or one of your own devising, not some nonsensical code. Other functions include user control over the download location and the application's visibility, integration with the DownThemAll plug-in, and automatic updates. The interface is simple and uncluttered, always a plus. Tiny but powerful--and, most importantly, useful--Ook? Video Ook! is a must-have for grabbing online video content.
Publisher's Description

"Would not open"
Version: Ook Video Ook 0.6.6
Cons
What's with the .xpi file format. Windows could not open it?
-
"Stopped working back in Aug 2007"
Version: Ook Video Ook 0.6.6
Pros
fine concept
Cons
Apparently it used to work, but stopped last year, possibly because YouTube changed something on their site. There is a message thread about this on the Firefox addons page for this addon. Why download.com is still offering it, and recommending it in current articles, I don't know.
