Quick tips

  • Respect copyright: Download your own videos, public-domain or Creative Commons content, or anything you have permission to keep. Don't re-upload others' work as your own.
  • Always credit creators: If you share a clip (with permission), tag the original creator and link the source.
  • Pick the right quality: 1080p for laptops and TVs, 720p for phones, 480p if storage or data is tight. 4K files can be 5–10× larger than 1080p.
  • Use MP3 for spoken content: Lectures and podcasts are 90% smaller as audio-only and play in any music app.
  • Get transcripts for study: A transcript is searchable, quotable and tiny. Pair it with the video for note-taking.
