A little grepping around in the sites' HTML usually (not always)
allows you to figure out what file is actually being loaded. Once
you know that, it's simple to stream it in eg Mplayer. I needed to
do this to watch film trailers at Apple.com or stream soccer games
from mls.com.
$ curl http://the.site.com | grep '\.\(rm\|wmv\|mov\)'
