my opinion

1. Recording means capturing packets coming from the flash player and save them as a file, it is useful when recording from a website that uses anti-leech technique.
   
   Downloading means straight forward downloading from source url, it downloads faster than real time buffering.
   
   Replay Media Catcher (RMC) downloads videos, Jaksta can download & record videos, FLV Recorder/Bit Recorder record videos
   
   both methods can get you the same FLV files, but there is a problem "recording" flv live stream, the video plays too fast
   
2. I tried both programs, but i must say i love RMC more.
   RMC's GUI is better, Jaksta requires .NET framework 2.0 or above to be installed, which is very inconvenient. And this kind of application uses a lot of system memory, it sometimes crashes too.
   
   As of download/record ability, both applications are great at recording from most of media protocols. Jaksta is better in recording Windows Media streams(MMS,RTSP). RMC can split and tag songs from recording radio program.
   
   Jaksta can't download/capture SWF verification protected videos, RMC can do it with the old plugin
   
   There are also some useful mini tools inside RMC. Jaksta can also convert files
   
   The most important thing is, the flexibilty to update the program, sometimes the developers make a change to RMC, you just need to download an updated plugin to replace the old one,you cant do it with Jaksta
   
3. My opinion is that RMC is better in downloading flash videos
   It can split and tag songs from Pandora
   And the customer service in my opinion is better,and they offer a reasonable price
   
   when you need help,you can always ask it in RMC forum
   You can also get the money refund within 30 days of your purchase
   
   I'd say try RMC first, if you dont like, then go for Jaksta

hope that helps
