There have been a few times that I have wanted to show my family a youtube vid or two. Where they live, there is not any Edge, 3G or WiFi. This app will take care of that.
I like to have videos on hand to show friends. It's handy when you don't have to remember video names or worry about your signal strength. It's not a huge deal but the convenience is nice.
Seeing how MxTube hasn't been updated yet I'm guessing it'll be in Cydia by tomorrow or the next day.
Yeah basically this app is just for convenience. You can download your favorite YouTube videos then play them later if you don't have service.
That's just an example of why you would use this.
It's also great to download them via wifi then just watch them anywhere you go. You don't have to worry about using data.
Sucks that this app will be pulled.

It's probably because it was downloading in the background and when you go back into the app, the slider just updates making it looking like it's downloading in super speed.
I am able to save them to a folder on my computer, although excuse my noobness how do i sync these videos so they show in my "ipod" under videos?
If they do take down MiTube, you can always use iCab app (using module) to download YouTube vids, but would still prefer MiTube.
[app]Downloads[/app] also works.
I think I read Apple can remotely delete apps via iTunes, but they have never done so yet. Perhaps they'd only use remote delete for an app that posed a security risk...
MacRumors really dropped the ball on this one. Apps that will likely be taken down by Apple should be front page news. This is very time sensitive info and whenever an app squeezes into the App Store (when it shouldn't have), it demands a lot of exposure so people don't miss out. Instead, there's some crap about some Snow Leopard graphics seed.
It's stil up. I just copped me a copy
Glad I got this before it was gone!!
It would have been another oh noes after I missed the free tethering app !
What if you copied the file to your desktop! Would it jut be removed when you next synced?
Probably.
Apple hasn't used the remote kill feature as far as I know.
It's really only intended to be used in situations where an Application is discovered to have a really big security issue (like stealing the user's password or credit card details).
Ok so if it gets pulled early will the developer of the app not update/maintain it or can he even do that once it has been pulled?
I know there is more apps to dl videos but this is simple to use.
Many other apps have been removed from the App store after Apple approved of them such as HandyLight.
None though have been remotely "killed" from a user's device yet.
