Downloading TV shows automatically with Democracy Player

by Jordan Running on February 24, 2006 at 01:25 PM

DemocracyThe other day we covered the Windows release of Participatory Culture's Democracy Player (formerly DTV), a media player that lets you "watch internet videos like you watch TV." Today Lifehacker points us to a great tutorial for using Democracy to automatically download your favorite TV shows via BitTorrent. Of course, there are many other ways to approach the "poor man's TiVo" problem, and this one takes a bit more fiddling than most, but if you prefer to have your downloaded shows available right away in Democracy, this is the method for you.
