    I like the GUI better than all the rest of the Youtube downloaders. No install (but the DLL's are annoying) The worst annoyance is you can't set a default D/L folder, and it doesn't remember the last D/L folder. Too bad, that's a deal killer and the nice GUI is wasted.

    I'll continue to use KeepVid.

    YouChoob not remembering the last download folder is a bug that willl be fixed in the next version.

    I'm sorry, but as a developer (and author of this actual program) your comment really annoyed me. Rather than review the application, you basically just said "I use KeepVid, but I'll give this here app a bad score because happens to do what KeepVid does".

    What, specifically, is wrong with YouChoob? Is it because it's a native application and thus not capable of ever achieving a score above 2 compared to a browser-based solution, or isn't it very good compared to other applications that do a similar thing?

    Comments like these really make me feel like I've wasted my time, they really do. :/
