If you're in the U.S.:

  1. Create a fake credit card with Privacy
  2. Set the purchase limit to $0.
  3. Create a temporary email
  4. Start a 7-day trial on Medici.tv
  5. Use a video downloading tool to grab what you want.

Truthfully, I don't know if step ~~4~~ 5 will be easy. I've used OBS to do screen records of encrypted content. But that takes a long time to do, so maybe there is more information out there about ripping web video?

I didn't do it. When I got to the recommended site for a pre-paid online card, I realized I'd have to provide bank info to yet another online site. I'm trying very hard not to do that. If there's a particular performance you're looking for, try a search engine, using composer, performer, and date. I often find Yandex is more useful than Google/Bing/Yahoo in finding videos of classical music. People post classical performance videos on VK and on disk space that comes with Yandex mail & VK mail. Western DRM doesn't get checked as often there.
