Youtube-dl <https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl> is indeed a powerful 
and very good software for this job with many features and options, but 
can you download videos *from anywhere ?*

What I want to say is that there are many web pages which greatly hinder 
(prohibit) this possibility.
In this case, what can we do? Can we always find the hidden link 
(source) of the video? If so, how?
If the page requires you to be logged in, what can we do?

Video Download Helper it's a good tool but it never won me over and it 
was never so effective (on all websites) so as to amaze me.
So much so that I no longer use it at all. Is it better/"stronger" in 
the new versions?
