Rezwan,
There are a lot of “screen capture” (or “screen grabber”) thingies that work for streaming videos.
Many can be downloaded and at least tried out for free.
I googled for “video screen grabber” and found those for you to try out: (among many others)

Dunno about (American) copyright etc.. It all depends on what it’s used for. When used for nonprofit, i’ll doubt you will attract a lot of fire from the copyrightpolice for copying a youtube movie.

Although, as copyright laws are evolving now, the time is not far off that illegally downloading an mp3 will be punished more heavily than simply stealing a CD out of a shop. :coolhmm:
