Is there a way to record streaming quicktime files?

Greetings

A friend of mine is interested in streaming product information videos from his site. It is extremely important that these video files are available to download. I was told streaming a QuickTime file is one of the best methods, while setting the options to turn of caching and the kiosk. Is there still a way around this option, can someone still technically record or download these files?

So how exactly would you go about it?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought that quicktime usually stored all it's videos in the temporary internet files.

It does, but the file it creates has no extention, no affiliation and renaming it as a .mov does nothing to make it readable. If you can convert the temp file to a playable format you should be ok I would imagine. However, I think the file is designed to be unreadable. Any thoughts?

Now I'm confused: You want the videos to be saveable or not?

No, I don't want the videos to be saved, but I'm curious about how would go about making the attempt if you really wanted them.
