With a QuickTime-compatible movie playing, click the button at the bottom right of the area and choose Save as Source or Save as QuickTime Movie from the menu which appears. If those options are grayed out, the person who created the movie set it not to be downloadble through that method.

YouTube videos on a computer use Flash, not QuickTime, and don't have that button.

You use Firefox as your browser and the free extension DownloadHelper. And then it does it.

Note searching Google does wonders vs. waiting to be told how.
