Tubular - YouTube client with presale offer
Tubular is an upcoming YouTube client allowing you to browse videos (keyboard shortcut goodness included) and save them for your iPod with a mere click or two. It used to be known as InnerTube, but CBS sued for some odd reason to force the name change. Fortunately, while development is rounding up on what looks like a slick Mac OS X app for YouTube, users can pre-order the $19.99 app for only $12.99. Even better, Phill Ryu has a $9.99 offer at his blog (at the bottom of the post). If you want a little more information on Tubular and its abilities, check out the Tubular blog and Phill's preview from back at the end of August. For the YouTube junkies, this looks to be a pretty useful app.

It's about time something like this came out.
I wouldn't be too surprised if Apple negotiates a deal with Google to incorporate this into iTunes.

Are you crazy Black Macbook?
Apple ain't ever going to negotiate to get this into iTunes. Their own sales of things like the Daily Show etc would be stung!

Okay, I guess I'm asking for a lot :)
If they could setup some sort of revenue sharing model then maybe it's plausible.

I wonder how long it will be before this image reflection + fade fad goes the way of the pinstripes.

Developers goes crazy. A pre-order for a app? It's a nice idea to have apps in the beta stage at a nice price, but... without NOTHING to test, all the words in that site are smoke.

I'm looking forward to the day when I can legally download my favorite shows for a subscription fee, and turn off my DirecTV service. I don't need 200 channels, only about 20. Who knows, perhaps one day YouTube will be that service.

Um, am I missing something, or isn't this providing the same thing as apps like PodTube and TubeSock?
