This software only provides a means to batch and automate things you'd have to manually download through "save link as". It's not chasing a moving target like youtube-dl.

It's quite useful where you have 50 PDFs on a school page and you'd like to download them all without manually clicking save link as on each one of them. I have fond memories of DTA from my bachelor studies.
