I don't usually care about old titles because every day a lot of videos I'm interested are uploaded in 1080p. But from time to time you get an "old" video recommended. These videos are usually uploaded in streaming sites but they don't have seeders in torrent sites.

How do you download them? For example I'm trying to download a video uploaded in javhub.net. I've tried with Video DownloadHelper and Download Video & Flash Firefox addons. None of them worked.
 
Looking for Retro RQ Image Videos and Scans plus Retro Gravure but I've got Stucked in Deadlinks and Scam Website like Sharen'lock(Stupid Website ever!). Sometimes I encountered a Idol Scans that It can buy with your money virtually in order to download.. I hope other Retro Gurabia Reupload with a New Link.....
some retro gravures I've seen here: https://exoticaz.to
 
If it is streaming video, I would probably download with an online downloader, something like SaveTheFile. If that doesn't work, I would just record them down, CleverGet Recorder is the one that I usually go for.

With direct download links. The speed is always good, you don't rely on seeds unlike torrents. Also you get the original file, not a reencoded file from the streaming site.

You gotta work with command line tho, and if it's embedded video you'll first need something that can catch the HLS streams (browser extension), cause just posting URL won't work into the command line.
Supports multi-threading downloads as well. Most streaming sources cap at 500KB/s, and you can go up to 5 threads so you get 2.5MB/s then. Some say to be cautious with it cause multi-threading can get you banned, but for me it has been fine.
It's always updated super fast if they can find ways to block it.
