A few days ago on Hacker News, I came across a post that says 3D Buzz is shutting down and releasing all their contents for free. This was a website that was quite popular for 3D tutorials and stuff.

This is how it looks like when I visited, note: downloads are temporarily disabled as of current writing.

There are a list of courses released all available for download, so I decided this is a good exercise to write a simple scraper to download the resources. I wrote a simple python script that use Beautiful Soup and Requests that will download the html page of 3D Buzz and parse the HTML. After which it will attempt to download the contents. You can check out the project here.

[Update:] 3D Buzz have instead released a torrent file which is in my opinion better for such distribution.
