The tube sites are not one website
YouTube is the biggest tube, not the only one. Vimeo’s lectures, Dailymotion’s archives, Twitch’s streams and a thousand niche hosts hold video YouTube never had — and they all answer to the same link.

A long tail with most of the history
The famous catalogue is on YouTube, but the specific thing you need — a 2009 conference talk, a regional TV clip, a creator who never cross-posted — is as likely to live on a smaller host. Those hosts predate and outnumber the giant; treating "video site" as a synonym for one company undersells the internet you actually use.
Same gesture, every host
The durable skill is not memorising a downloader per site; it is the gesture: share link, paste, pick a quality. DownloadTube runs that gesture across 1,000+ hosts, because the fetch engine reads the same public web your browser does.
Respect the hosts’ rules
Public is fetchable; private, paywalled and DRM-locked is not, and should not be. The long tail is for lawful saving of public work — your own uploads first among them.
