Yes, there is at least one other tool, PlayOn, which can't be discussed for recording Netflix or Amazon Prime.
#NETFLIX DOWNLOAD RULES SOFTWARE#
If the use of this software violates this forum's rules then it should be removed from the tools section, including it there is a tacit endorsement of this tool. Can you think of any other tool listed on this site that we can not discuss? Vdub? x264? TMPG? Anything? In the case of Netflix, your attempting to download the content goes again the Terms of Service you agreed to when you signed up: The hypocrisy obviously arises from the fact that this forum lists this tool in the tool section but does not allow any discussion related to it. If by hypocrisy you're going to use the often cited "But you allow discussion of ripping DVD and Blu-Ray discs!", that, in most countries falls under fair use. I am not even close to being a lawyer in my dreams but it seems to me that a similar type of precedent has already been made when it comes to recording a show that you have a legal right to. But with regards to someone that subscribes to Netflix (I do not) and owns the right to watch their streaming service, wouldn't this fall under the "time shifting" rule that was decided a long time ago with the Sony Betamax VCR case? Again, I'm not arguing about the rules here. Except as explicitly authorized in these Terms of Use, you agree not to archive, download, reproduce, distribute, modify, display, perform, publish, license, create derivative works from, offer for sale, or use content and information contained on or obtained from or through the Netflix service." I firmly believe in the forum rules here. You agree to use the Netflix service, including all features and functionalities associated therewith, in accordance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations, or other restrictions on use of the service or content therein. Except as explicitly authorized in these Terms of Use, you agree not to archive, download, reproduce, distribute, modify, display, perform, publish, license, create derivative works from, offer for sale, or use content and information contained on or obtained from or through the Netflix service." In the case of Netflix, your attempting to download the content goes again the Terms of Service you agreed to when you signed up: There are other forums and sites that do allow discussion of your topic, none of which are allowed to be disclosed here. While it's your right to question them, the rule to disallow any discussion about downloading from subscription sites is there to protect the forum from possible DCMA takedown and to protect the forum members that do follow the rules from potentially being tagged as pirates.
