      As far as I know, it isn’t illegal to attain or have media for personal use. It is illegal to circumvent DRM and to distribute the media.

      So, for example, it isn’t illegal to record a stream. But the hoops you’d have to jump through in order to do so would end up circumventing DRM or with incredibly poor quality.
