    Youtube downloads have long been under discussion for not being legal and violating copyrights. However, media lawyers like Christian Solmecke say: Youtube contains private copies and these are allowed. A download is only prohibited if the source is also recognisably illegal, for example the video is obviously a secret cinema recording (as of 04/2015).
