Download YouTube videos from Terminal


If you are a YouTube fan, and have always wanted to download the tons of videos available online from Linux based distros, there are quite a few good options available, like Flashgot (Firefox plugin), etc.
However, if you are of the CLI-types, and prefer a Terminal based solution, just download and install youtube-dl
su -c ‘yum install youtube-dl’
And you are done.. now use it in the following way and enjoy :-)
