DRM bullshit (and that is exactly what it is) is preventing you from doing that. Actually, DRM has been preventing a good number of people from actually watching anything. They haven't gotten off to a good start, a _lot_ of people have had problems. If you have XP 64 bit edition, you probably will have problems (I got a cute error telling me to "upgrade" to the 32 bit version of XP) Yeah, I'll get right on that shit and reinstall windows.

For video, I suppose you could fullscreen it (assuming you can) and pipe it through TV out to a VCR and then re-import it (or use 2 computers and skip the VCR). I'm sure they would like to prevent you from doing so, but the fact that video card drivers... well... suck for the most part probably prevents them from doing that.
Of course, Microsoft Windows Vista will block off this route because your tv won't be an "approved display", but that is a few years off.

That _should_ work, but if it doesn't, you're probably SOL on video, but it should be possible to make some image caps, before opening the stream, open up another movie (anything) in real player, quicktime or something besides windows media player. That window should grab (and hold) the overlay surface, forcing AOL's service to render the movie in software. Once it does that, hit printscreen to your heart's content. There are apps out there that will automatically save multiple screen prints as well as allow you to change the button that takes the screenprints - which might be necessary because I wouldn't be surprised if they disabled the printscreen button (it is really, really simple to do)
I also wouldn't be surprised if the WMP API has a "force overlay mode" command in the api that is implemented by this site (or will be eventually), but you should be able to get around this by the following process.

1. Right click on the desktop, select properties
2. Click on the "Settings" tab.
3. Click "Advanced"
4. "Troubleshoot" tab
5. Move the Hardware Acceleration slider to the left.

Also
1. Start, Run, type in "dxdiag"
2. Display tab
3. Disable the 3 directx features.

This will set your computer to use a basic mode for displaying video. Actually, a good number of video cards don't support some of those features, so they will probably keep this hole open.
Keep in mind that if you re-size the video (like full screen it), it will probably slow your computer down significantly.
So turn this stuff back on when you're done (and, of course, don't turn it off if it works without it)
The above steps will, however - bypass the vast majority of "screenshot prevention measures", with the exception of the app sending printscreen keypresses to null.

Also, if you download higher resolution content aka "HighQ" video (you don't actually stream it), you do it in a way that is similar to bittorrent, which means that while you're downloading, you're also uploading it to others. Hope you don't pay by the byte or have an upload limit.
Also, the file that you download is stored in a format that is locked. Your computer has to connect to AOL's license servers every time you want to play it (the downloaded file is stored in temporary internet files, by the way). And you won't be able to open it in anything but windows media player, so it is a bit of a moot point)

You _might_ be able to write the video to an unprotected file with "graphedit", but if you're so interested, google it yourself and have fun with the interface. I really wouldn't recommend this to newbies (the documentation is virtually non-existent) although if you are able to use this program to do something, you'll have more insight into how video works on a windows box.

If there weren't far better (and cheaper) options available, it would no doubt be hacked in a matter of days, but since there are so many better alternatives, I don't think anyone will bother (besides, they barely have anything up there)

Alternatives - which are pretty much universally easier to use.
1. DVDs, whether they be through netflix, blockbuster, half.com, ebay or whatever other source of DVDs.
If you don't want to spend money, you can sign up for several free "trials" in a row (blockbuster only needs a different credit card number and email for each free trial, address and name can be the same)
2. Usenet
3. P2P - whether it be edonkey, limewire, bt or whatever your favorite program is this week.

No - fortunatley I caught a documentary on PBS last week that suggested that massive intake of alcoholic beverages "might" have some deleterious effects on health. Research seems to be in it's early stages, but who would have figured?
BTW - anyone tried out any of those livers for sale on Ebay?
The kidneys I got last year 'sorta' work, but I'm always in the market for an upgrade.
