If there any kind of software I can download where I can easily record a streaming video like say You tube or any other kind of streaming video and save it to my harddrive for later use?
Thanks

If you are using Firefox there are a few extensions you can use to download and save a YouTube vid, like this one for example:

I personally use a program called Internet Download Manager that is great for downloading streams from any website, not just YouTube. It is a shareware program so not free.

Any programs like that for a mac

I really have no clue when it comes to MAC software and what is good and what isn't, but I found these from looking on a MAC forum. Check them out and see if maybe it's what you are looking for. I think all of them are trial software so you could at least try them before purchasing.
