It depends if the audio of the video is protected by copyright. For instance, if you are talking about using YouTube to download music, (which is what I'm assuming you have in mind since one of your tags is 'iPod,') then no, it is not legal. Let's say, however, you want to download the audio of a news report or something. That would be perfectly legal.

How do you download music to put on YouTube?

You can usually find music on Peer-to-Peer networks such as BitTorrent (such as the pirate bay, isohunt, mininova, etc.) or Gnutella (such as FrostWire), although depending on copyrights and where you live, the legality of this is questionable. You can also download music from mp3 or other audio format downloading sites (such as Ogg/FLAC/Wav), but most of these sites require you to pay for the music. However, putting music into a YouTube video may violate international copyright law, and most likely will be removed by the owners of the copyright owners. Another legal option is, once the video is uploaded already, YouTube allows you to add music from a list of legal songs, although this will force advertisements to be displayed next to your video, which many YouTube users do not like. Also, doing this will make it impossible to restore the original audio track on the YouTube video.

Where should I look online to find YouTube download software?

Going right to YouTube and downloading their app for video downloading is the best and quickest way to go. I've seen several different programs for downloading video to YouTube but find that going right to the horses mouth(so to speak) is usually the better decision.
