I’ve got ways around Zamzar not liking particular links. I’m working on a post all about how to download (just about) any video to your desktop for at-your-convenience consumption.

And I’m right with you on not sleeping easy ’til it’s on my computer. Control freak.

(And yes, some day, I’ll actually starting writing something of value again.)

Go to http://www.zamzar.com/url/ – type the URL, the file type you want, and a short while later it appears in your inbox like magic. Very cool!

This is what is in question here. Fair use would be applied to Dan’s use of the work in his class. Clearly it was fair, but that has no bearing as to whether or not Dan’s method of obtaining the clip was legal or not.

That’s my understanding but IANAL.

Legally questionable but IMO, morally and ethically sound.
