Unfortunately, in late 2019 the venerable msdn magazine's last issue appeared. In the mid nineties I had a subscription of its predecessor, the MSJ, which was later converted into an msdn magazine subscription. For archiving purposes I was looking for a way to download all past issues of msdn magazine in some easy way and decided to massage the download document on the web (which might disappear without any notice at any time) a bit in order to extract the raw download URLs. The result is this batch file that requires curl to be found via the PATH environment variable. It downloads a whopping 3.3GB of pdf and chm files that fit neatly on a writable 4.7 GB DVD. Download your copy of all msdn magazine articles before the download links go the way of all flesh...

The original and official page on the web that I parsed for getting all download links is this.
