downloaders

Digital content retrievers

Downloaders are people or programs that download files from the internet or a network.

The term usually refers to software applications designed for retrieving content: I use a video downloader for YouTube clips.

It can also mean users who download rather than upload or share: The site had thousands of downloaders but few seeders.
