How do I convert videos from YouTube onto a disc

First I want to do it legally. I think YouTube is a great video sharing website and I enjoy a lot on it. It is a great way to show people and the crazy idea. Yesterday, I got some nice YouTube video and now I'm trying to burn the video I download on YouTube so I can watch it on my big screen TV and home DVD with surround system, rather than on a crappy computer monitor with crackling speakers. I was wondering if someone might know if there is any programs that might be available that can convert the YouTube video files FLV, AVI, WMV onto a DVD disc, legally of course for my own personal use on my ps3. Anyone have any ideas?
