This tutorial shows you how to download any video from sites such as YouTube, GoogleVideo, iFilm, etc. and then convert them to .AVI files using only free tools (Firefox, VideoDownloader, and MediaCoder). Although this tutorial doesn't go through how to do it, you can later burn the AVI videos onto a DVD so you can watch them with a DVD player.

Though you may have been "googling" people for years, the verb you were using was technically slang, until recently.

From TFA: "The problem with most menu systems is that they're really touchy whether you're too fast or slow with the mouse.
