XDM - Xtreme Download Manager

Top Pro

Supports ripping media from sites

XDM has the ability to rip files (MP4, AVI, webm, etc.) from media sites like Youtube or Vimeo. Unfortunately, audio streaming sites like Bandcamp or Soundcloud don't seem to work with this feature. See More

Top Con

Horrific project management!

There are no versioned source tarballs, no build documentation or build system, and the binaries seem to be built from a private repository as the source code does not reflect the changes. See More

Top Pro

Supports multiple download queues

With XDM you can set up a number of download queues, both scheduled and unscheduled, to give you better control over what batch of files gets downloaded when. See More

Top Pro

Uses download acceleration techniques

XDM intelligently and dynamically segments files as they're being downloaded, allowing it to use multiple threads per file. XDM also uses connection reuse to cut back on the amount of time it takes to establish a connection with a given server. See More

Top Pro

Built in scheduler

XDM's scheduler allows you to set a specific time for XDM to begin downloading, and then disconnect or shut down your computer when it's finished. See More

Top Pro

Integrated with a number of browsers

XDM is integrated with Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Vivaldi, and any other Chromium or Firefox clone. This integration has you installing an extension on your browser that redirects all downloads to be handled by XDM rather than the browser itself. See More

Top Pro

Resumes interrupted downloads

If you have a power outage, your internet disconnects, or your download is otherwise interrupted, XDM will be able to resume from where it left off just fine. See More

Top Pro

XDM is very fast for download files

XDM download speed is very fast because the internet speed on XDM is more optimized than other download managers. See More

Top Pro

It can get the download link without the need for other tools

Through the browser integration extension it is able to capture multimedia download link by itself - while other download managers need the link to be sent to them. See More
