I've had this for the last couple of versions and it doesn't do much for me. Since it auto updated to the latest, I tested it on a 46 sec youtube video and the footprint was 6.7 megs. That was at 32 kbps quality. After several minutes, I finally stopped it half way on dial up speeds. The same file on Dirpy took less than ten seconds total 364k file size at 64kbps. How is this latest version so good?

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (3.0.2.1-signed.1-signed).

The MP3 files are actually much smaller than what Firefox reports :). That's because YoutubeMP3Podcaster downloads the video and converts it to MP3 directly on your PC. That's necessary because youtube is a video site (natch). If you look at the actual file vs what's displayed in Firefox you'll find the real size is about 1/5 what you see in your FF download manager :)
