The lifetime option is less than $20 for either windows or Mac.
Mipony and jd shouldn't be compared with IDM. They don't do the same thing.
Mipony's reason for being is downloading from file sharing sites like MediaFire, mega, zippyshare, nitroflare...
If you don't download from file sharing sites, mipony is useless for you.
For torrents, a dedicated torrent downloader would be better suited to the task.
I'm however finding JD's ability to download YouTube videos quite useful, better than paid YouTube downloaders.
You'll need to edit the option string to the path you want it to save videos to. I have it set to not download playlists, but you can do whatever you please with the option string.
Just copy the youtube url, mouseover the input field(it will grab the url from the clipboard, and press the get file button. No frills but it works fine for my needs.
