Why do other Reddit downloads have no sound?

Where does the downloaded file go?

Is it legal to download videos?

It depends on the video and where you live. Downloading your own uploads, or videos the creator lets you reuse, is generally fine. Re-uploading other people's videos without permission usually isn't. When in doubt, ask the creator.
