Rated 5 out of 5
by Firefox user 13586645, 2 years agoThis addon has always been one of the best video downloaders - being stuck with a very slow broadband connection I often had no choice than to download stuff as it simply wouldn't play otherwise.
I now have a fast fibre connection but the convenience of downloading videos, to skip ads, popups and all is still great.
And 99 times out of 100, this add-on simply works. The new, revised UI has simplified things a little but I'm sure the myriad of options are still there. I simply haven't needed to delve too deeply, which is ideal.
The devs are conscientious and try their best in what must be a very difficult market. I'd advise to pay their small fee - it unlocks lots of great features, has worked across multiple computers, OS's, devices etc., is very reasonable, and - most importantly - funds the continuous development of the program in an area that you need to keep on top of the various ways content providers try to subvert programs like this.
I can't recommend VDH highly enough, and I've just downloaded my 100th video on the current version, it asked me to leave a review, so here it is.

- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 19013942, 3 hours agoSo I love this product, but the only thing keeping me from giving it 5-stars is a lack of a website blocklist in version 10, but 9 had a fully functioning one.
