Download Videos from Johnny's Net (FAMILY CLUB Online) Without DRM

Since introducing on-demand delivery services, popular Japanese idol groups like SixTONES, Snow Man, Kanjani Eight, and Hey! Say! JUMP have been offering live broadcasts and archived streams online.

But what if you miss a live broadcast of your favorite Johnny’s idol? Or what if you want to watch it again and again? You can enjoy live or archived broadcasts anytime, anywhere by recording or downloading them from a paid Johnny’s streaming service, namely the FAMILY CLUB Online (formerly known as Johnny's Net).

This guide will show you how to download videos from Johnny's Net and save these paid and archived streams using just the site URL, helping you capture the best moment of your favorite idol.

Where to Get the URL of Johnny's Video?

To save Johnny’s live stream, you’ll first need to find where your favorite live shows are streamed.

Johnny’s content, including live streams, web videos, performances, and family club videos, is distributed across various entertainment sites. Here’s a list of these sites:

Johnny's Streaming Service 1: Johnny's Net Online (FAMILY CLUB Online)

FAMILY CLUB Online is a video platform that lets you watch live performances and concerts of your favorite Johnny’s artists. You can purchase tickets to watch these live shows online.

Usually, live performances on FAMILY CLUB Online aren’t recorded for later viewing. However, there are exceptions. For example, “Johnny’s DREAM IsLAND 2020→2025 ? From This City I Love?” was made available due to a system failure that prevented some viewers from watching the live stream. But this video is only accessible to those who originally purchased tickets.

To save a video stream from FAMILY CLUB Online, you typically need to extract the MPD video URL and use a specialized tool to remove DRM protection before recording or downloading the video.

Johnny's Streaming Service 2: Fan Club FC Video (JFC)

Johnny’s Net is a membership service that allows you to join fan clubs (FCs) for idols like Takuya Kimura, Kanjani Eight, Shonen-tai, and KinKi Kids. As a member, you can watch your exclusive live and archived video content.

After joining a fan club, you can access and watch archived content even after the initial broadcast. However, membership is required to view and download these videos. Membership offers additional benefits, such as priority ticket applications, lotteries, newsletters, and birthday cards.

To save member-only videos from Johnny’s Fan Club offline, you must first join the fan club, extract the video URL, and use conversion software to convert M3U8 videos to MP4 or MKV format.

Johnny's Streaming Service 3: Johnny's Jr.

The Johnny's Jr. website (formerly known as ISLAND TV and now migrated to johnnys-jr.com) offers a glimpse into the lives of Johnny's Jr. talents, including Kansai Johnny's Jr., Bishonen, and 7 Men Samurai. Here, you can enjoy live concert broadcasts and even videos showcasing the daily lives of the members.

While live broadcasts are typically not archived, ISLAND TV often features behind-the-scenes and daily life videos that are usually preserved on the website.

Similar to Johnny's Fan Club videos, content on the Johnny's Jr. website is streamed in M3U8 format. If you want to save these videos offline, you'll need to copy the video URL and use a video conversion tool to convert them into a more common format like MP4 or MKV.

Johnny's Streaming Service 4: Johnny's Official YouTube

On YouTube, you can also watch videos of performances through the official accounts of artists such as "FAMILY CLUB," and "ARASHI," and some past performances may also be available for a limited time.

You can save them while they are open to the public and watch them later at your leisure.

What is DRM Posed by Johnny's?

Johnny's videos are protected by a technology called DRM. This technology prevents you from recording or copying the videos to your devices. Basically, it is a mechanism that prevents you from recording Johnny's video content on any device, including computers, smartphones, tablets, and hard disk recorders.

To bypass DRM and save these videos, you can use a technique called URL extraction. This involves finding the direct link to the video stream and then using special software to download it.
