YTD lets you quickly download videos from YouTube, Facebook, Dailymotion, Vimeo, Metacafe, and more, all with just a few clicks. Especially if you frequently download videos, you'll enjoy the smooth processing and handy extra features this app comes with.
Pros
Downloading options: With YTD you can choose to complete a straight download from any of the sites mentioned above. You can also convert downloaded files to multiple different output formats, and you can opt to download only the audio track of a file in certain situations.
Speed and versatility: This app boasts impressive download speeds, and it gives you the ability to initiate multiple downloads at once. You can also pause downloads and then resume them at a later time, and you can preview part of a file you're downloading to make sure that what you're getting is actually what you were after.
Cons
No Help: There is no Help file or manual available for YTD. Although most processes are pretty straightforward, it would be nice to have an alternative to emailing Support if you run into trouble or aren't sure how to access a particular feature.
Bottom Line
YTD enables you to download and convert files from many different sites quickly and efficiently. The speed of downloads completed though this app is impressive, and the number of downloading options available makes this a good tool to have at your disposal.
Editors' note: This is a review of the trial version of YTD 5.2.11.
