You-Get is a tiny command-line utility to download media contents
|
|
(videos, audios, images) from the Web, in case there is no other
|
|
handy way to do it.
|
|
|
|
You might want to use it:
|
|
|
|
* You enjoyed something on the Internet, and just want to download them
|
|
for your own pleasure.
|
|
* You watch your favorite videos online from your computer, but you are
|
|
prohibited from saving them. You feel that you have no control over
|
|
your own computer. (And it's not how an open Web is supposed to work.)
|
|
* You want to get rid of any closed-source technology or proprietary
|
|
JavaScript code, and disallow things like Flash running on your
|
|
computer.
|
|
* You are an adherent of hacker culture and free software.
|
|
|
|
What you-get can do for you:
|
|
|
|
* Download videos / audios from popular websites such as YouTube, Youku,
|
|
Niconico, and a bunch more.
|
|
* Stream an online video in your media player. No web browser, no more
|
|
ads.
|
|
* Download images (of interest) by scraping a web page.
|
|
* Download arbitrary non-HTML contents, i.e., binary files.
