If a TV tunner and a video-out cable is too expensive you can simply film the screen with a video camera. Sure, the quality won't be that great... It will probably take some filtering. But it CAN be done, make no mistake about it.
That's a lot of trouble to go to when you can spend and extra $10.00 for an additional legit copy.
