Nobody actually answered you โ โall these repliesโ with no steps is more confusing. 
The โMay 10โ deadline is fake. It kills the source, not the copies. This whole library is already ripped, mirrored, and torrented across half the planet. Grab a lane 
๐ The whole shelf โ already lifted
The exact ask. ZTM, done for you:
| Grab | What | Cost |
|---|---|---|
| 128-course pack (on 1Hack) | All 128, 2025 batch, ~376 GB, EN subs |  torrent |
| Downloadly | Single courses, direct DL โ cherry-pick | |
| CourseFlix | 133 ZTM courses, stream in-browser, no login | watch |
Everything โ torrent. One or two โ Downloadly.
๐บ๏ธ The list 'they' keep trying to take down
One index to rule them all โ a giant community wiki of every free-course source alive, updated constantly (dead sites swapped out weekly, so links never rot):
- FMHY โ Educational โ courses, docs, learning. Bookmark this and you never need to ask again.
- FMHY โ Downloading + Torrenting โ where the file-host and tracker links live.
Any course, any topic โ this wiki has a source for it. This is the โroam anywhereโ answer.
๐ด The mirror army โ any course, already down
Sites that re-host paid courses. Search the exact title in quotes on any of them (or Google "Complete Python Developer Zero to Mastery" site:coursehunter.net):
| Site | Stash |
|---|---|
| CourseHunter | Massive dev-course vault, EN + RU |
| SoftArchive / Sanet | Courses + software + books, huge |
| FreeCourseSite / FreeCourseWeb / FreeCourseLab | Udemy mirrors โ live links on FMHY |
| CourseClub ยท TutsGalaxy ยท DesireCourse | More Udemy/Lynda/Pluralsight dumps โ FMHY |
| CGPeers / CG Persia | Design, VFX, 3D, motion courses |
Pirate domains rotate often โ if oneโs dead, FMHY has the live one. Donโt trust a hardcoded link, trust the index.
๐งฒ Torrents + the Russian vault nobody checks
| Source | Why bother |
|---|---|
| 1337x | Search the course name โ most big courses sit here |
RuTracker  |
Russian tracker, free signup. Has courses that exist nowhere in English. Right-click โ translate the page, or use their bypass proxy |
| Academic Torrents | Legit-leaning, big datasets + lecture sets |
RuTracker is the sleeper. Different country, different uploaders โ stuff the English scene never got. Bind your torrent client to a VPN and youโre clean.
๐ผ That Chinese link, decoded
bilibili (bilibili.com) = Chinese YouTube. Users re-upload paid courses free.
- Siteโs in Chinese, search isnโt โ type the English name (
Complete React Developer Zero to Mastery). - To save not just watch: feed the video link to yt-dlp (next box) โ reads bilibili natively.
๐ช If it plays, it's yours โ rip it raw
Works on ZTM, Udemy, Coursera, Skool โ anything that streams. Sites donโt give you an .mp4; they stream chunks through a playlist file (.m3u8 = the chunk list). Grab the list, one tool rebuilds the video.
No code: browser extension โ Video DownloadHelper / Stream Detector / M3U8 Link Finder. Play โ it lights up โ download.
Command line: install yt-dlp + ffmpeg (stitches chunks), then:
F12 โ Network tab โ filter: m3u8 โ hit play โ right-click the line โ Copy as cURL (bash)
yt-dlp --referer "https://zerotomastery.io/" -o "lesson.mp4" "PASTE_M3U8_URL"
Power moves (the part nobody posts):
--cookies-from-browser chromeโ auto-uses your logged-in session. No manual cURL copying.- Dump every lesson URL into
list.txtโyt-dlp -a list.txtโ whole course in one run. --write-subs --sub-langs allโ pull the subtitles too.-N 16โ 16x parallel, way faster.
Have a sub already? Rippers that batch a whole account: udemy-downloader-gui (Udemy), coursehunt / fmdown (CourseHunter), N_m3u8DL-RE (yt-dlp with buttons).
403 Forbidden= link expired, not you. Refresh โ grab fresh m3u8 โ rerun.
Hard-DRM sites (Pluralsight, LinkedIn Learning, anything Widevine) hand you a scrambled file โ standard tools canโt save those. ZTM is plain HLS, so it rips clean. For the DRM ones, use the mirror army above instead.
๐ฆ Summon a mirror from thin air
Course too new to be indexed? Conjure the file yourself:
- Google dork it:
"exact course title" mega.nzยท"exact course title" site:drive.google.comยท addteraboxโ people leak whole courses to cloud drives constantly. - Telegram: search the course name in-app. Course-dump channels and request bots (โsend title โ get linkโ) are everywhere, especially for Udemy/dev content.
- Reddit: the r/Piracy megathread + course subreddits point to fresh mirrors daily.

๐ฐ Where this quietly saves your ass
- Paid a Udemy course โ it gets pulled or refunded โ your own copy still sits on disk, forever.
- Instructor โupdatesโ the course and deletes the old lessons you liked โ yours are safe.
- Flight, dead wifi, data cap โ offline
.mp4s, no buffering, no login screen. - โFree for 10 daysโ promo ends โ doesnโt matter, you grabbed it in 2 minutes.
- Sub lapses or account gets banned โ your library doesnโt flinch, itโs local now.
They set a deadline. Your hard drive doesnโt have one.
