Today's giveaway looks like an excellent tool to me although the converter side isn't as good as the Video Downloader (but you can easily replace it by using awesome FREE converter tools like FORMAT FACTORY and/or iWisoft Free Video Converter).

So THUMBS UP from me with some reservations though!!!

However, for a more comprehensive video & audio recorder utility, my recommendation is to use a FREE GEM called “FreeCorder4″ by Applian!!

This is an awesome FREE Video Downloader, Audio Recorder, Video & Audio Converter. It also includes a FLV Player capable of recording WEB (streaming) AUDIO & VIDEO from over 1000 sites, saving them on the HD of your PC as you hear or watch them, by automatically creating MP3s files from ANYTHING you hear on your PC, including radio, worldwide TV channels and even Skype calls!!

Another great FREE Video Downloader & Coverter tool is also this:

As you can see it can even download videos from 10.000 Websites: cool, isn't it??

So as usual with your Italian friend Giovanni there's no need to pay anything...LOL!!!

Enjoy!!

Giovanni, one of the things you might consider warning people about is that some of those items you recommend, though maybe good in operation, have many additional "add-ons" that tend to breach privacy. FreeCorder4 is one of those.

This is the only video downloader I kept after trying many.

The converter isn't as good, but I noticed this: sometimes a host changes its pages and the download does not work anymore. After one or two days this Videoget downloads an update and the download works again. This tells me that there is actual people working on it and keeping this program really up to date.

For video conversions I'm using Aiseesoft given away a few months ago that does a really good job.
