- Hi,
I don't think it'd be legal, I mean there are lots of extensions as you are using one of them, but if YouTube wanted people to download the videos and copyrighted songs etc then they would themselves add that button to their website for the convenience of users 🙂
I use extensions to download videos from Twitter and Facebook. I use Jdownloader (software) or just type in search engine "download youtube video" and use any of the available websites to paste youtube URL in and start downloading right away.- silverlionBrass Contributor
HotCakeX there is no good extension for this work and without extension we feel very very bore by "copying the video URL and open third party apps then paste url and at last downloading will start.
Okay so after digging more into this, it looks like in chrome extension store, you can't find any good extension to download YouTube videos with because:
but with Microsoft's extension/addons store, extension developers can host their extension in there and don't let Google stop them which is a good thing 🙂

so I went there and found this extension:

and went to YouTube to test it, it works!
it doesn't appear to support 1080p videos but there are other extensions in Microsoft addons store that you can try, I only tried this one extension. if you search for phrases like "download youtube" you'll find them

Back to your topic, Yes I agree with you, if Edge supported this built in it would be useful and make life easier for us
