Unlimited ripping of Netflix "Watch Now" movies

A while ago we wrote about removing the DRM from Netflix “Watch Now” movies. At the time, it involved wading through a bit of HTML source to find the target video URL. Since then, a couple of important things have happened: a Greasemonkey script was written that makes it a bit easier to download and process the DRMed WVM file, and more importantly, Netflix is now allowing unlimited downloads.

It also means you can convert the files to mp4 format for playing on your mac, iPod or Apple TV device.

Couldn’t you just watch the movie and record it with screen recorder? I’m sure it’s lengthy but you can more or less record any video this way. Camstudio is a free on screen recording app.
