I have seen a lot of copyright songs used on Youtube videos and are still Public is this legal?

No, it is a violation of copyright laws. YouTube routinely goes through and eliminates videos that violate those laws. They will also respond rapidly if requested to remove them from the copyright holders. Actually i posted a video and that happened to me,they send you an email you fill out the form and it is perfectly fine!

Is there a way to save you-tube videos to your desktop legally?
Legally? No. Youtube's ToS prohibits you from saving any content to your desktop. However you CAN contact the person who posted the video and ask for a copy. If they send it to you, this is both legal and free. Also a lot easier and safer than trying to use third party software to 'rip' it. ---------------- Of course, if the material does not belong to the poster then it is still illegal. I am referring to obtaining materials from Youtube legally- Youtube and the Poster retain copyright ownership of videos unless the Poster relinquishes it. So if the copyright belongs to the poster, then they can send it to you legally. You CANNOT rip it from youtube legally, under any circumstance, due to Youtube's ToS and copyright laws combined.
