I use avconv to do the reverse - strip video from YouTube and retain
just the audio:

avconv -i original_file -acodec copy -vn output_filename

I suppose you'd just switch the 'a' and 'v', so something like
(untested):

avconv -i original_file -vcodec copy -an output_filename

'man avconv' for explanation.

The above is better.
