Recording repeated programmes

A friend has missed an episode of a series and this is available to watch on the ITV catch up facility on the internet. Are there any problems in downloading this particular episode to my computer, it is on Real Player, so that I can save it for his return from overseas and viewing by him later ?
Sorry if this is the wrong section of the forum for this query.

No, not without striping the DRM from the video file. Only suggestion is to buy the dvd?
