Is it possible/allowed to save YouTube videos to your PC?

I'm asking as I want to save a non-copyright instructional video. It's quite long and I don't want to have to stream it every time I want to see it. Also I might need to see it when I'm without internet access.

There's an add-on for Firefox called DownloadHelper (and DownloadConverter to change it into almost any format). I use those and they work fine. Beware that DownloadConverter puts a logo into the output unless you buy an "upgrade" version, but that doesn't bother me.

EDIT: it works on more than just youtube, but is disabled on sites like BBC.
