No, you can download with IDM even if you dont have a subscription. They dont allow downloads for the 20$ subscription and the 30$ subscription allows downloads but only a maximum of 30 fast downloads per day. I got the 20$ so i can watch anything, but the downloads are extremely slow, was curious if it could be bypassed somehow.
I made a program that can, but since it's un-signed, virus protection will yell at you for using it; you'll just have to trust me it's not a virus. I don't want to upload the source since I don't want recurbate to see it in case they are here đź‘€. It also works on any operating system since its a cli program. It's also able to download multi vids at a time if you have a premium account.
I did.
