SoundCloud and Youtube Downloader

SoundCloud and Youtube Downloader is a fairly simple application intended for users who want to enjoy audio and video files hosted on the web in offline mode. It grabs such files and saves them to a location of your choice in a timely fashion.

Basic interface and short learning curve

Following a quick and complication-free installation process, you will be able to get acquainted with the GUI of the program, which sports a rather rudimentary appearance. Only a few fields populate it, therefore usage can be intuited quite fast.
Despite being simple in appearance, the application stays faithful to its purpose and accomplishes it decently. However, there is such a thing as too simple and SoundCloud and Youtube Downloader might fall into this category, by our standards.

A modest, yet working feature set

A basic looking interface doesn’t necessary call for a basic feature set, but with SoundCloud and Youtube Downloader, this seems to be the trend. In contrast with similar products, the program lacks advanced download options, for instance related to video quality.
It all comes down to specifying the link to be processed and the output location, then to press the ‘Download’ button. Optionally, you can set the program to open the destination directory.
Depending on the size of the file that is being downloaded, the software can take more or less to finish the task; obviously, large files will take longer to grab.

Aspects that need improvement

At this point in time, SoundCloud and Youtube Downloader falls short of a few features. A richer set of download options is a must, but a better interface is also an aspect that requires attention.
