I use webscraper plus. It is a little complex, and will need to "chunk" large scrapes (10000 pages+), but it does everything and there are cracked versions at piratebay. The video tutorials are also very helpful.

The best content scraper is a tiny bit of php knowledge and some practice with regex. Start by checking out some PHP scripts that convert say, rss feeds to some other format, like html, and hack together what you need from that. Even for a novice, it shouldn't be too tough to get something working quite quickly, and you'll feel like you accomplished something.

I agree. I have been dabbling with multi curl in my PhP scripts and the scraping results are astronomically better (faster and more accurate). Plus, I can run them from my host server and not tie up my computer doing grunt work.

PHP, Regex, Multi Curl = best solution.
