RealPlayer to Support One-Click Video Ripping

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the easier-than-ever dept.

Aditi.Tuteja writes "RealPlayer is coming up with a free version in June which will allow one-click video ripping. This free downloadable video player will allow anyone to save and organize video files in all major formats including Flash, QuickTime, RealMedia and Window Media and will support video ripping from websites like YouTube or more. The new RealPlayer will not download or record video that is DRM-enabled."

    As much as I loath the "goatse.cz" posters, it's apropos in this thread since that's probably a picture of where RealPlayer was pulled from. ;-)

    CowboyNeal has never touched a boob That's not true ... he's touched mine. He does have soft hands for a guy though.

    ...for which you're not sure whether you have permission (but isn't protected), but it still won't rip the DVD I purchased. Nice. Thanks.

    Oh, but it WILL rip material downloaded from pirate sites! OH the irony... B-)

    That should be "goatse.cx". Disturbingly enough, I spotted the error without a second thought.
