There are many other products at wordpress.org that also able to rip youtube, full text articles etc. All of them feel fine there.
Personally I was banned from wordpress.com, when one of my customers emailed them and asked to delete my account along with all my plugins (some were very popular there, and freeware version of CyberSEO had about 200K installs) and close all the support forums. You know why? Because he was
unhappy with my
commercial product (not the one which was hosted at wordpress.org) because he doesn't want to read the fuckin' documentation, which was too large for him...
So he started to email them and submitted his rating for CyberSEO Lite because he didn't want to read the documentation for CyberSEO Pro.
I answered him that CyberSEO Lite at wordpress.org has no relation to my premium products. After that my post the thread was closed and I was banned forever.
Don't you believe me on that? Please reaв it by yourself, because the unedited story is still available at wordpress.com:

Personally I don't think that was a sane behavior of wordpress team...
Add: I've just re-read the correspondence with that guy. The documentation was not the main reason. The problem was because "I'm a jerk". 2checkout.com did not accept two his payments as fraudulent.
He ordered the plugin then refunded, ordered again, when filled a chargeback, then ordered it again (actually he've done that 3 times)...
The guy started attacking me on email for being a bad person who can't get a control on a billing company (2checkout.com) which he uses to sell his shit (cyberSEO Pro), so he has reported me to wordpress.org:
Yeah, not it's a full story of my wordpress.org ban.
