Surely some people just use screen recording software for the "Download" illegally part?

This usually doesn't work because of HDCP, and you'd have to reencode the video stream, sacrificing quality. Removing DRMs is a lot cleaner.

Makes sense, and I know a lot of people are like "4K ultra or nada" but I grew up in a world where 480p was watchable and good enough that you would invite friend over and have a freewatch party. So I guess it depends who is watching right?

I tried a couple of screen recording tricks and it appears that Netflix is easily captured on Chrome....
