Greetings friends!

(First time post on Lemmy, hope I'll get the hang of this!)

I've been looking for a good source for the Masterclass stuff, particularly Gaiman, but I keep coming up empty. I found something on a Chinese streaming site that if yt-dlped, but the quality is really meh. I'd like to avoid torrenting these.

Does anyone have a good recommendation? I tried going through the lists but if there is an applicable subsection, I must've missed it.

Thanks, everyone! It's greatly appreciated!

masterclass.com seems to have a 30 day trial, you could maybe use that and extract a bunch of those that are interesting to you? I'm not aware of any particular piracy masterclass' oriented website tho

That's would definitely be a play. I expect they'll have tried to make that as hard as possible, but with the right tools, maybe it could be done.

That said, I know repositories of these exist, I got my Tom Morello guitar course from a old one, so I'm holding out hope for finding one.

Still, unless I can find something, your play will probably be my next move. Thanks for friend!

If you figure out a solution I'm up to spread the load of the downloads if you want more than you can get in 30 days.

There are some private torrent trackers that have them. I got a 2020 site rip from Speed(dot)cd. TheGeeks is a tracker specializing in educational material, but I am not in it. Both are accessible through MAM but TheGeeks is a little harder to get in.

I could temporarily share what I have through a OneDrive link, it has 96 courses, ~400GB.

One of these days, I really should take the time to try to get into MAM, if only for the audiobooks, let alone Masterclass. But for now, I have 2 babies at home, 5 5 year olds, and try to prep for an exam.

So if you are willing and it can be done safely for you, I'd love to take you up on your onedrive offer. I'm mainly after some specific stuff, mostly on writing, so if it is less work on you, that'd alone be huge for me. Listening my bad quality Gaiman is all personal entertainment I get these days, so it'd be a big deal, but I'd definitely understand if it is too much work for you.

Sure, I'll send you pm and you can download it all or just what you want.

All the best with the exam and taking care of your family!
