Amazon video for vidding

[arduinna]

Does anyone know how to rip an Amazon video to be able to vid with it? It's even legal now (woo, DMCA exemption!), but the googling I'm doing is bringing up very few programs with even fewer reviews, so I'm not sure what's reasonable and what's potentially malware. I'd be happiest with something free, obviously, but am willing to pay for something that works. Amazon has some stuff that iTunes doesn't, and it's starting to get frustrating.

The two options that seem to be most likely are GetFLV and Aimersoft Video Converter Ultimate. Anyone have experience with either one, or know of something better? (CNet loves GetFLV, gave it a five-star Editor's Pick rating, but the user reviews are full of people claiming spyware/malware...)

Legal or not, it is so hard to leave this post open!

Also, fwiw, as far as I can tell, *every* vidder has an idiosyncratic system! Everyone I know has a different method of getting and manipulating source.

Hee! That's comforting to know. :) I just always feel like such an outlier in talk of vidding process, because it always seems to start with ripping source and that's never been a thing that I do. (Mostly for hard drive space reasons, although that's less of an issue than it used to be.) Anyway, I hope you'll be able to work something out!
