How do I download the streaming media off of the site/or the media files' server?

Is there a client you guys know about that I can start using? Or is there a process to it?

Help is very appreciated! Thanks

If you look through the FAQ section the reason for this makes a lot of sense, and is similar to what I would've expected.

The short answer is that supporting piracy sites would in all likelihood result in the project being shut down. In the past, other similar projects have been shut down due to supporting piracy sites. The yt-dlp maintainers are of the position that supporting such sites is not worth the risk.
