I'm on a mission to download videos from a website. However, it seems like you gotta pay to view the video. I'm not interested in paying a dime. It seems impossible to download the videos. Sometimes, it's not what you know but, who you know. Maybe, someone here knows a way to download any video imaginable. I don't wanna give up yet lol

Paying puts you in the position of possibly not stealing.

Circumventing the paywall to steal the content? Eh.

Yea, it's pretty easy to do but I think C-D frowns on, or should frown on, discussions of pirating.

I'm not interested in downloading movies or tv shows. I'm trying to download videos that other members posted to the website. However, I can't push play or anything without paying first

Ohhh. Yea, if you can't even get them to play, you're out of luck. Still considered pirating though. Doesn't have to be a show/movie.

You're not supposed to have access to the content without paying to get past the paywall.
