Yeah web-dls might be hit or miss but webrips are such good quality that it's irrelevant for most folks anyways, since it's nearly the same quality you'd see on your TV.

I think you have terminology wrong here. by definition, WEB-DL is the exact encrypted video/audio content that is served, but unencrypted of course. You literally cannot get higher quality than a proper WEB-DL.

That's what I said, you might not be able to get a webdl depending on if the stream is cracked, but at least webrips (which are captured from capture cards) are good enough quality anyways.
