I used to queue videos up the night before, then be able to watch them on the ride to school. Then one day you couldn't do that anymore.
There use to be a feature in Internet Explorer where you could download a local copy of a webpage and specify how many links deep you wanted it to go. It maxed out at 5, which would grab the entirety of any fansite I pointed it at.
It took like an hour for an image of the Ultra 64 (N64) controller to load on my screen from the reveal in Japan. I remember waiting as each line of the image would slowly appear on a grey scale laptop screen over dial up. My eleven year old mind was blown, worth it.
Yep. They want you to buy premium and download them now
Aren't there some like open source extension for this now?
On Android you can use Newpipe instead, it allows you to download them.
