Copyright laws prevent individuals other than the creator of the work from copying, altering, distributing, or performing/displaying the work without permission. Much of the text of copyright laws, however, consists of limitations, defenses, and exceptions which allow specific unlicensed uses.

Is it illegal to create a DVD using videos from you tube like if you wanted to burn the movie the lion king is that legal?

Yes, it is illegal. The person who uploaded the video is violating copyright, and you are violating copyright in downloading and burning it. The law against copyright prevents you from *copying* things - ie. uploading them to YouTube, or burning them - without permission. So it does not matter where you get a copy of The Lion King from, if you copy it yourself by burning it without permission of the copyright holder, ie. Disney, you are breaking copyright law.
