BBC iPlayer DRM cracks

[Clippy]

Mods, please feel free to delete this thread.

For the record, I had a specific need (research purposes) to download and view a particular programme for reference at leisure and not for the start of some criminal enterprise.

Dunno then, come to think of it, is there anything that is not already on a torrent somewhere these days??

You can always download the file again if 30 days is not long enough to get the plot of an episode of Eastenders.

No you can't (usually)

You get 7 days to download it and 30 days to watch it after you have downloaded

i wish you guys would realise that if i'm reading threads like this just now; left alone, by xmas, i'll likely be reading all about dp's "Crackz, Serialz, Warez, get your lovely Hackz....." and by n/year, there's no board!

How about getting snot flying p*ssed?

i'm currently using iplayer-dl on my linux netbook and it seems to work well. Files are drm-free too.

ah right, of course. i was forgetting. it's hardly theft if it suits your own purposes and you can justify it, is it?

How can it be theft from the BBC? We're licence payers!
