HDCP is broken so none of it really matters. The resulting files ("webrips") aren't a lossless copy of the original, but are good enough for most.

- Salgat 2y agoYeah web-dls might be hit or miss but webrips are such good quality that it's irrelevant for most folks anyways, since it's nearly the same quality you'd see on your TV.
- russelg 2y agoI think you have terminology wrong here. by definition, WEB-DL is the exact encrypted video/audio content that is served, but unencrypted of course. You literally cannot get higher quality than a proper WEB-DL.
- Salgat 2y agoThat's what I said, you might not be able to get a webdl depending on if the stream is cracked, but at least webrips (which are captured from capture cards) are good enough quality anyways.
- gorkish 2y agoI posted elsewhere in the thread but it bears repeating, "The analog hole has gone fully digital." The generational loss from one recompression is effectively unnoticeable. What a ridiculous arms race!
