Supplementary notes

The source adds the following information: "Stream-ripping plug-ins: otherwise known as browser extensions, provide browser level functionality allowing for streamed content to be downloaded. The advantage of these services is that the ripping functionality can be turned on and off by the user in real-time without the need to switch between the streaming service and the stream ripping service. Content can also therefore be downloaded in bulk, removing the need to download files one by one."
