Saving an online video

Alright... now for the record this movie (I Spy) wasnt great, but I crack up everytime Eddie Murphy sings Sexual Healing to Owen Wilson to help him out with his girl problems... Finding the video online was not hard. I opened it with Windows Media Player, and I cant just save it on to my computer like i usually can with other videos. I dont want to save the link because i wont always have this great (HA!) college connection... any ideas?

Thanks,
Matt
 
Well, you can bypass the whole thing completely and use a program like Camtasia to capture the area of your screen that is playing the video. There is one called SnagIt that costs $40. There may be some freeware also. This just completely circumvents all the digital copying protection. It's similar to recording your computer's audio output to make MP3s because the CD was copy-protected and you could not rip it.
