Zamzar
Zamzar is a web application to convert files. It allows user to convert files without downloading a software tool, and supports over 1,000 different conversion types. Users can type in a URL or upload one or more files (if they are all of the same format) from their computer, Zamzar then converts the file(s) to another user-specified format. For example, from an Adobe PDF file to a Microsoft Word document – users receive an email with a URL from where they can download the converted file. It is also possible to send files for conversion by emailing them to Zamzar. Zamzar is currently free to use. However, users can pay a monthly subscription in order to access preferential features, such as online file management, shorter response and queuing times and other benefits. Currently, Zamzar is able to download and convert videos from a large number of video sharing websites – however, in 2012, it stopped providing support for downloading videos from YouTube.
