Hello,

I've been for 1 week now in Thailand i think this is a beautiful country. However i want to download music from YouTube but im not sure if this is legal/illegal. Can somebody please help me?

If by download you mean to your harddrive, it's illegal no matter where you are unless the music in question is an original work and been published under a Creative Commons licence.

I guess he's got a youtube video downloader installed, which isn't really legal. OP,use a VPN.

Yes you are not getting one either.

I guess i have been downloading of Youtube for so long i had no idea i once installed Youtube downloader.It is an option with Firefox.

It does show on all of my screens that i can download so i thought it was part of Youtube.

On the other hand i have not heard of anyone in Thailand being punished for downloading anything!!!

I have a lot of movies and a zillion pieces of music on my hard drive.

Maybe time for a crackdown?

There is a download button on the YouTube android app. The downloads are kept for 30 days I think.

555 no worries.

 

The question was is it legal, not what people do. Personally .... ummm ... I mean a friend ... prefers Video Download Helper ????

eh?  There are many free youtube video download programs out there that will download the video or audio only into many different file formats.  As long as you don't sell or try to make money from the downloads I don't think it is illegal to download for personal use
