Hi people, since we see more and more complaints regarding old movies being not politically correct anymore, I am getting more and more concerned about some purchases I made some years ago. Specifically, there is a set of local movies in my mother tongue which I bought and therefore want to download them in case they are removed/changed later on. How can I do that?

Linux cmdline tools preferred, sharing is no consideration, so I am not concerned about digital fingerprints.

    It’s usually not unencrypted though. You need a special device to defeat the encryption (HDCP).

      You don’t. That encryption was cracked long ago and your average HDMI splitter will bypass it completely.
