This type of stupid restrictions make me want to pirate instead.

If you're on a Windows 10 desktop computer then use the "Snipping Tool" program.

Does not work because of DRM. The Snipping Tool would only get a black screen.

Edit: Black screen capture when using Chrome-based browsers. Seems to work fine on Firefox.

Don't use Chrome-browser for anything. This is just one small reason why you shouldn't.

I'm glad you got it working, good job.

Right-click, "Take screenshot" using Firefox desktop browser.

I disabled hardware acceleration and it worked on Hulu, I think it works for Netflix too.
