Who cares if YouTube is a huge online video repository that's always available on-demand (although sometimes with adverts). It doesn't matter because we'll always want to download the latest Katy Perry video, the last-minute goal of our team against Man United or any old video starring cute cats. And just to load them onto our tablet, share them via WhatsApp from our smartphone or edit them to have a laugh. Regardless of the purpose you have in mind, there are loads of different programs to download videos to our PC and one of them is the possibility to download xVideoServiceThief for PC, which has nothing to envy of other similar applications like aTube Catcher, which we could define as the best program to download videos from the Internet.

Your hard drive can't cope with all the videos on the Internet. Check it out with this program.

Compatible with dozens of online video streaming services

Its main strength is precisely the wide range of webs and services that it's compatible with and that will allow you to get hold of all sorts of videos. This and other features and features make it the favorite video downloader for millions of users:

• Built-in video conversion: it incorporates a converter so that you can convert any video to other popular formats compatible with any Android device or iPhone, including AVI, MPEG1, MPEG2, WMV, MP4, 3GP or MP3.

This popular download manager has also landed on other platforms like Linux and macOS, but for the time being, there's no APK available for Android. You can only download xVideoServiceThief for PC. As an alternative for tablets and smartphones, your best option is probably downloading Tubemate, since it doesn't look like there will ever be a version for mobile devices.
