Hey,
you've mentioned downloading You-Tube videos in cmd. Did you know you can also play them in cmd (with sound and *vision*!). Just make sure you've got your sound card configured and mplayer installed with aa-lib support. than just run `mplayer -vo aa file.ext`. It rocks :D. Although it gets some being used to, if you've got a nice big frame buffer (like 1024x786 or sth. like that) console with nice fonts it's really possible to recognize what's happening.
