— Needs switchable playlists without having to type in the search field or relaunch the app
Maybe all that is available in the full version, but how am I supposed to know that without paying for the app first? Can't buy a product without knowing about it's capabilities.
the demo is identical to the full version except for the "reminder" box. It's that simple.

But in any case, even though I really like your app, but due to lack of the aforementioned features (playback controls in fullscreen and the playlist thingy), I can't buy it. Otherwise it would be a downgrade from MacTubes for me.
I hope you will, at least, consider doing those. But until then, I'm stuck with stupid ugly MacTubes. :(

the interface is very Mac-like. It behaves as you'd expect e.g. press the space bar to pause and play.
If you crave to see the comments, you can right click on a playing video, select the appropriate option and the YouTube webpage will open (and the Minitube client will pause playback)

Mactubes is just different, if you took the time to the test the app you would know.

The flash player plugin eats up 80% of cpu in my macbook pro.
This tool only uses 20-25% of cpu.
Really genius.

I would suggest some features:
browse author's videos
deleting bad keywords or history
Access informations at any time
Scroll in the video?
shortcut to put the next video to watch, or something to create a playlist…
The only con is the quicktime cache folder.
Use Minitube 1 hour and you get a >700MB large QT cache folder ;(
thanks for this freeware.
