You may have found a great number of enjoyable videos on Vimeo and have the intention of watching them one by one in your spare time. However, you need to access the Internet each time for watching, which's rather annoying if there's no Wi-Fi or you're in some place without Internet connection. You may have spent quite some time looking for an old video, when you finally find it, you want to keep it for long so as to replay it in the future. Or you may have watched a video which's your favorite, but you didn't log in at the time and the browse history's been deleted. Whichever case you're faced with, the best solution is to download the videos to your device. Uploading files to Vimeo is easy, yet downloading ones from it isn't. Although Vimeo offers downloading service itself, there're some limitations. You're only permitted to download five videos per day with your Vimeo account, and you can just download a small part of the videos, with a lot left unavailable for downloading. On the other hand, in some areas, users are prohibited from downloading any of the videos no matter what, which's a huge discouragement.
On plenty of websites, when you download a video, a cumbersome process is required. You have to copy its URL (Uniform Resource Locator, the standard resource address on the Internet) first, add it and paste it on a pop-out box, download it, and convert the file to an appropriate format for your device. Sometimes you'll find it a blank video as it hasn't been decoded and cannot be watched. You need to download a video decoder in order to gain access to it. I believe you'll never be willing to spend ages and make such an effort to download a video, all you want is just a one-stop tool which deals with everything that blocks your way to downloading.

What can we get from Vimeo.com?
Following YouTube, Vimeo ranks second among the world's top ten most popular video sharing websites in 2013. It allows users to upload, watch, download or share high-definition videos of diverse types free of charge. Interestingly, its name is an anagram of the word "movie", and "me" stands for the exclusive contribution to videos made by its users. Unlike most websites of the same kind, Vimeo not only supports many video formats, but also supports email uploading, enabling users to upload their videos from their mobile devices anytime and anywhere. Besides, the videos uploaded won't be converted into flv (flash video) format, nor will they be added the logo of the website like its counterparts.
