Well you know, if you cannot download streaming movies from Netflix since these are protected that does not entirely mean there is no possibility for you to save Netflix steaming movies for later viewing.

You can go the recording route and try to record netflix streaming movies while they play, that should do the trick and let you save streaming movies from Netflix without any problems since it has nothing to do with the protection.

You guys are just complicating things with trying how to download streaming movies from Netflix watch instantly subscription and trying to find workarounds for protected netflix streams.

The simplest way to save netflix streams is to record streaming videos and movies from Netflix while they play with some sort of video recording or video streaming capture software, no point to spend 200 bucks or more on new hardware.

Find a some screen recorder programs and try them out, you'll most likely find one that is able to capture and record Netflix streaming videos without any problems.

You know, you can't always find any movie you want from netflix available on dvds so that's definitely not a good way to solve this problem.

Indeed the protection might not let you download streaming movies from netflix directly, but no one said anything about not being able to record Netflix streaming movies while they play.

You could just as easily don't know, use a HD-PVR and set it up to record streaming movies from netflix. Of course this means investing in some new hardware but I think it's worth it.

I think it was possible some time ago to download streaming movies from Netflix.

These guys seem to have figure out a way to download Netflix streaming movies and videos using some sort of script, it's a kinda old solution anyways so I am not totally sure if it still works to download and save video streams from netflix subscription.

Of course I've also read that if you do by any chance get caught using this, Netflix might revoke your account. I think they probably ignore it the first couple of times, but do pick up on it for high volume downloads so not sure how reliable of a method to download Netflix movies is this one.

Ahem agreed, y'all just beating around the bush, screen recorder should do it without a doubt.

Since this sorta software simply records what is being played on your computer's screen and has nothing to do with the protection these movies usually have, it should do an excellent job at recording netflix streaming movies and videos.

Think Audials Tunebite can do the trick for you, works great as a Netflix Downloader and can capture record and save streaming movies and videos from Netflix in no time and of course in good quality.

It's just like pointing a camera at your screen only of course better and you should have no problems is you record netflix movies this way, but just to be on the safe side you should make sure you don't share the recorded movie files anywhere, it's for personal use only.

Hmm not sure, though as far as I recall they only let you stream online movies to various devices, there's no option that also allows you to download netflix streaming movies to you hard disk.

Maybe you can find the movies you were wondering how to download from netflix on dvds and get them by mail.

If I recall correctly, Netflix uses microsoft silverlight for the movies that are streamed online.

The movies most likely are protected, this kinda makes it pretty much not possible to download online streaming movies from Netflix, unless they have some option round their site that specifically says "download Netflix movie here" or something like this.
