Just a friendly reminder that YouTube can go down, videos get privated and deleted all the time, channels get terminated.
If you have any videos that you really, really like and wanna be able to re-watch in the future - download them.

If you download them and they get removed from YouTube you still can't watch them I think. When I say download - I mean actually download them so even if YouTube goes down or the get deleted you have them on your machine.
