Since Apple has allowed us to download Apple's Commercials, promo videos etc, I have downloaded them all, including the stuff going way back.

Over the last year, Apple has prevented us all from downloading the latest commercials and promo videos from their website. I don't want to loose these valuable pieces of history.

Has anyone been able to download all the recent ads/promo videos and can you please provide links to download them?

Thanks.

P.S. AppleAds.net is in the pipeline, I just need help to get it up and running.

A) YouTube. Apple has a channel.

B) it's worth making sure that rehosting Apple's ads doesn't constitute a copyright violation.

It's not ilegal to download a copy of Apple's current ads for personal use. I just want to save them. As for YouTube, those ads will be removed once they aren't current.

Posting them on your own website is not "downloading them for personal use".

AppleAds.net doesn't exist and will never ever when it launches host ads/videos/files. I want to download the ads from Apple's site to keep in my 22GB Apple Commercials folder on my computer. I have every ad (except the past year) and want to download them.

That is a strange definition of "in the pipeline", then.

It's been in the works, but am having trouble with the current CMS I bought.

I figured out how to use Chrome to download the videos. Just one last problem, Apple has removed "iPad is" ad. I really really want that ad to completely my collection.
