Peekvid es un servicio en línea gratuito que presume de tener una base de datos de más de 20.000 videos incluidos programas de TV, dibujos animados, películas, etc… Utiliza la tecnología de codificación de YouTube y dailymotion.com, donde simplemente hay que elegir una categoría de los videos que queremos ver y listo.
El servicio roza la ilegidad, ya que echando un rápido vistazo en su base de datos de películas te encuentras con 300, Caso Bourne, A Mob Store, Last Woman On Earth, etc… todas en ingles evidentemente, pero al menos nos puede servir para practicar un poco.

Now that Peekvid is back, it’s time for FLV junkies to start worrying when it’ll disappear into “closed beta” again. dlThis.com allows you to download videos from Peekvid (actually Dailymotion) and back them up to your hard drive as FLV video files (which can be easily converted). (more…)

Just tried it and, while it was painfully slow, I was able to download an episode of House with very little effort. (The trick to finding the right URL to give dlThis.com is to show the address bar in your browser for the popup window. The URL will start with http://peekvid.com/video/.)
After a little over a week of “closed beta,” Peekvid seems to have resolved its troubles (probably legal) and has reopened with a refined UI and a nice disclaimer on the bottom:
Peekvid does not contain any content on its site, but is merely an index of available links on the Internet. Peekvid is committed to an industry solution that will provide a mechanism to compensate artists that create the work you enjoy watching. Peekvid would like to be part of the long term solution.
