I am trying to download videos from "web of stories" (http://www.webofstories.com/). I tried all suggestions on How can I access Flash files from streaming websites?, but no one worked. My browser is Firefox 11.0. Any ideas?

Well I had written an answer for actually doing this with flvstreamer but as somebody who deals with video streaming professionally, I thought I'd check out the terms and conditions and doing what you're proposing is directly against the will of the project:

[6. c.] you agree not to access any content made available on the Web Site including without limitation Material through any technology or means other than the playback facilities of the Web Site itself or such other means as WEB OF STORIES may explicitly designate for this purpose;

It's not just about copyright, hosting this stuff costs money. They're hosting it on S3/Amazon so it's actually costing them a lot of money. Every gigabyte streamed to you costs them between $0.12 and $0.25 on top of the S3 storage.

In short: if you want a load of their video, ask them.

I don't know whether www.webofstories.com is compatible, but you can use www.keepvid.com to try and download it. That downloader is platform and browser independent and relies on a javascript to work. It may not work, but why not give it a try!
