[Growler]

There are a couple songs I want to download from Youtube as MP3s... but don't know how to do it.
Any ideas?

Has always worked for me, countless of others can be found if you just Google "Youtube converter".

Though i wonder. Isnt this technically warez since you dont buy the songs and youtube itself offers no distribution :s

That would make recording a movie that came on TV, warez as well.

It's a bit more complicated, since most of the time (at least for music) the person who uploads something to youtube does not hold the right to do so. TV channels however, pay large sums in order to air movies (which is in turn covered by fees/advertisements).

Exactly the reason why Warner Bros. is ruining pretty much every movie on Youtube by cutting away the audio. But then I wonder...is it the uploaders fault for using content they are not allowed to use, or is the the downloaders fault for actually downloading the Youtube movie/music?

Both.

They both do not own the right to upload someones music if it has a copyright.
