In Windows, my buddy Joel had shown me that Real Player (I know, bear with me) creates a plugin that allows you to directly download flash videos to your computer. So the adventure began to do the same in Ubuntu. READY!? WAIT FOR IT! WAIT FOR IT!

When the youtube video you have in your browser is fully downloaded, you can simply drag and drop from tmp onto your desktop, or anywhere else you might like to put it.
