Downloading flash videos?

[Dan03]

Does anyone know how to mass download streaming flash videos from the internet? I have one software that saves copies of all the videos I watch but it would take me too long to download the amount I want. something that can download them without watching the videos would be really nice.

Its really not ok to take other peoples work without at least asking them for a copy. If they dont want to give you a copy or sell you one then its not ok to take it.

There is nothing illegal at all with this.... I dont have internet in my home right now so I want to access the website offline. Its completely legal and normal as long as you are not resharing the files or using them for anything other than yourself and there are tons of software out there I just want to know the best one. Im sure if I asked the site they would also be fine with it too...

Anyway if anyone knows a good way please let me know.

That is completely incorrect, that is like saying illegally downloading music is fine so long as you don't give it to anyone else.

Unless given permission by the copyright owner you can not download or obtain a copy. You would have to contact the copyright holder of every video you wish to download and receive their permission before getting it, unless they have started that you can download the video if you wish, provided it is used for non-profit uses, for instance how TED do
