        I just noticed that the download link on YouTube is no longer there. What happened?

        The melody of the notes is what expresses the art of music . 🙂 6stringerPete

        It really is all about ”melody”. The melody comes from a language from our heart. Our heart is the muscle in music harmony. The melody is the sweetness that it pumps into our musical thoughts on the fretboard. 🙂 6 stringer Pete

          I brought this question up a few weeks back when i found that real player would no longer download part 1 of a lesson, never did find out what was going on.

            I use FLV downloader. It costs me $29 per year. But I am still able to download the first part of the lessons here. For me it is worth the money because I video with my phone, upload to youtube, then download the file from youtube with FLV. I can go straight from my phone to my laptop with blue tooth but that takes a really long time.

              Yep! The download button is missing. And I too always downloaded Brian’s YouTube lessons. Dang, the world is changing too fast these days.

                Roger I just checked out the FLV downloader. Seems now it is free. I’ll try it out. I read firefox add ons was having problems, do you know anything about it?

                  No I don’t know anything about firefox plug ins. If FLV downloader is free make sure it’s the real thing. I just had to pay for another year a few days ago. This is the one I use, it’s just listed as free to try. Probably a 30 day trial. https://download.cnet.com/FLV-Downloader/3000-2071_4-75706858.html

                    I don’t know anything about the firefox add ons. Double check that FLV I just had to pay my annual fee a few days ago. It might be free “to try”. This is where I got mine https://download.cnet.com/FLV-Downloader/3000-2071_4-75706858.html

                      I replied twice but it wouldn’t post. I think it might be because I included a URL.

                        I downloaded it and it works fine. I can now download You Tube videos. I didn’t see or read about a trial period for free, but I guess I will find out sooner or later.

                        I think if you go to this home page : https://www.flv.com/

                        or maybe this is what you have: https://www.flv.com/buynow.html

                        The free one does everything that I need. At least I think so.

                          Seemingly there is a workaround for realplayer, I’ll try it out 1st though before I post what the solution is.
