> However if you for example made a video essay for youtube talking about the themes (or whatever) of the tv show including clips from it, that would be transformative and probably fine.
Then I get a free pass when downloading the entire disney collection but making a youtube essay video for each downloaded item? So long as I don't seed of course.
I'm not trying to be argumentative, but surely you can see how that will never pass muster.
downloading is not the illegal part. distribution is the illegal part.
if you watch a video from a site that has a Disney movie on there, the site distributing the content to you is doing the illegal part. You are not doing anything illegal (AFAIK).
