It's the same deal with recording TV shows. You can't knowingly give someone a copy of your taped TV show. I wonder if you could give them your only copy though....

Despite pondering at now useless real life applications of something that would never be caught anyways (giving a physical tape of a TV show to someone) I used to do this regularly when internet wasn't reliable or I had to go away somewhere without it.

Why not using a tool like IDM (Internet Download Manager) that even gives you the option on resolution to download?
It has always worked for me.

Something's either illegal or it's not. As an American, I believe I am within my rights to capture whatever traffic can be legally sent to me at any instant.

Well, it's illegal then, American or not.
YouTube license is pretty clear with that: no download allowed (unless YouTube offers you a download feature for the specified video). Also, no add blocker allowed.

--ignore-errors - removed or region locked videos won't work any better doing them one by one..

Where exactly is that? I gave a quick look at their "Terms" but didn't see downloading or ad blockers specifically mentioned.

edit: I found the "no downloading" part (good luck with that youtube), but I'm still looking for "no ad blockers".
