Re: Downloading streaming media on Acer Aspire One with Linux. I'm going insane!!


You can use streaming video rippers for Linux.

You can also install Windows onto your Acer Aspire One. Or even better try Windows emulators that allow you to launch Windows application from Linux. Some of them will require you to install Windows, others won't.

Wine is a translation layer (a program loader) capable of running Windows applications on Linux and other POSIX compatible operating systems. Windows programs running in Wine act as native programs would, running without the performance or memory usage penalties of an emulator, with a similar look and feel to other applications on your desktop.
