Is anyone else getting problems with zamzar recently? its been 'out of service' for at least a week now and I haven't been able to get this clip I wanted off youtube for my Kate centric.
Has anyone been able to use it recently? And if so would they might collecting a clip for me?

Yeah, I've had a bit of trouble with it recently. Sometimes when I tried converting a file, it would pause or just fail. Very frustrating!

^ yup.. just use the enter link option and paste the youtube url.. or the browse youtube option and you can search for the clip right from their site... and then it converts and you download right on the site when it finishes rather than zamzar who sends you the link when it finishes converting...

personally I like mediaconverter better than zamzar.... lots of times it takes hours for zamzar to finally send me the converted files.... mediaconverter you just wait like 5 minutes while it converts and you can download right away
