Once recorded and saved on your computer, you can then watch them whenever you want without paying any additional cost.
Another advantage that cannot be overlooked is the ability to comprehensively download video content even after distribution has ended.
This is a great advantage because once recorded and saved, you can watch it anytime on your smartphone or TV.
