The best response to this will be to not pay. Watch this week's video, and maybe save the stream. Take the responsibility for archiving into your own hands.

- grsites 17y agoCorrect. I think I'll do that...

- modoc 17y agoThat's time-shifting for personal use... Pretty sure that's legal.
- eli 17y agoNot if you had to break even the most trivial content protection schemes to do it.
- jackowayed 17y agoHm, on second thought, I guess it probably is, except maybe if his TOS explicitly disallows it. It's basically the same as DVRing something. Still seems wrong.
- noarchy 17y agoThat was my thinking. And it is fairly trivial to do, on most sites. There are already plenty of ways of grabbing a stream for later viewing. If I am doing that just for me, for my own use, I see no issue with it.
- melvinram 17y agoIf you have the time to do that 5 videos a week x 4 weeks instead of paying $25/month, you're valuing your time too cheaply.
- plinkplonk 17y ago"If you have the time to do that 5 videos a week x 4 weeks instead of paying $25/month, you're valuing your time too cheaply." If he is a half way decent programmer he could build a script in half an a hour to automate the whole thing. So the "valuing your time too cheaply" argument doesn't hold at all.
