Thanks. I ended up using video2mp3.net as it seems faster than Clip Converter.
Look, you got a little stabbed the other day. That's bound to make anyone a mite ornery.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

iPad 3 update. Took it to work, plugged it into work computer, and it is working again, now with iOS7. Still need to sync from home to get all my apps and stuff on it. But happy it's not a brick. First reactions to iOS 7 are... meh. Not a fan of the BRIGHTER borders. They really do pop, when I'm used to them receding. Time will tell.

Apparently my iPod Touch 4 isn't good enough for iOS 7.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
It's only the latest gen of the Touch that gets the upgrade, Gud. So far I haven't found any rational explanation for this.

Chip speed is generally the biggest reason. The iPhone 4 can't handle all the new features, so they disabled some of them.
My iPad 3 sync'd fine at home, so, I look back to normal with the new iOS. Now to get used to it. So far, biggest complaint is too much white. Lots of glare. Harder on the eyes. I've beefed up the font size and made it bold, so it's a bit easier to read. And the calendar is twitchy and has unexpected quit a couple times.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Wow, Microsoft.
So, I'm banging around Windows 8. I still consider the three finger salute something you do when you're mad at the PC. But how else am I supposed to get directly to shutting down my machine?
Why do I need Outlook to check my mail? I kinda get the distancing from POP3, but making me set up an MS account to use your email app? Not going to happen, actually.
And so excited to learn that Office does not run on Android tablets. Does it run on the iPad?

Is iPhoto on the NAS just a doomed proposition? Does iPhoto need wires in order to be stored on an external drive? Why so crashy and slow?

Are you havingn trouble getting to the Power off option? Go the "charms" toolbar on the side, which you can get to with Win-C. Then go to Settings, I think, at the bottom. Whatever that bottom icon is. Not the most logical thing in the world, no.

I'm not having trouble since Ctrl-Alt-Delete does the trick--three keys and one click is all I need. But when you're used to clicking Start->shut down is faster than hotzone -> settings -> shut down.

You could get Start8 from Stardock. It basically makes Win8 work like Win7 by default. It's $5 so it's not a big financial hit to add it.
