This question has been asked a lot. You can download Linux and (now) Solaris 10 for free from the net. For Linux distributions, check
this site. Very useful. Just scroll down the page, select your criteria from the dropdown boxes and you are on your way! Just keep in mind that some distros are better maintained than others.
For solaris, go
here.
Moderators, since this is not an off topic question, can we move this to the dummies forum or some such?

WWW::NicoVideo::Download(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation WWW::NicoVideo::Download(3pm)
NAME
WWW::NicoVideo::Download - Download FLV/MP4/SWF files from nicovideo.jp
SYNOPSIS
use WWW::NicoVideo::Download;
my $client = WWW::NicoVideo::Download->new(
email => 'your-email@example.com',
password => 'PASSWORD',
);
$client->download("smNNNNNN", &callback);
DESCRIPTION
WWW::NicoVideo::Download is a module to login, request and download video files from Nico Nico Douga.
METHODS
new
$client = WWW::NicoVideo::Download->new(%options);
Creates a new WWW::NicoVideo::Download instance. %options can take the following parameters and they can also be set and get using
accessor methods.
email, password
Sets and gets email and password to login Nico Nico Douga. Required if the User Agent object doesn't have the valid session or cookie
to login to the site.
user_agent
Sets and gets LWP::UserAgent object to use to send HTTP requests to nicovideo.jp server. If you want to reuse the browser Cookie that
has the signed-in state, you can set the Cookie to the UserAgent object here.
# use Safari sesssions
use HTTP::Cookies::Safari;
my $cookie_jar = HTTP::Cookies::Safari->new(
file => "$ENV{HOME}/Library/Cookies/Cookies.plist",
);
my $client = WWW::NicoVideo::Download->new;
$client->user_agent->cookie_jar( $cookie_jar );
download
$client->download($video_id, $file_path);
Prepares the download by logging in and requesting the FLV API, and then download the video file. The second parameter is passed to
LWP::UserAgent's request() method, so you can pass either local file path to be saved, or a callback function.
prepare_download
my $url = $client->prepare_download($video_id);
Prepares the download and returns the URL of the actual video. See eg/fetch-video.pl how to make use of this method.
