No, GetFLV, TubeDigger and a few other similar programs actually save the incoming data from the websites. They are true rips, not screen captures.
Flash is frequently tries to fix their code to stop them, and they have constant updates to get around it. It's a fun little arms race.
I assumed by "several of these streaming services" you meant the ones listed in the thread's title.

There are a number of sellers that have like the same-looking box -- but who knows what's in them. Reviews are inconsistent -- some say they get the pictured box (metal), some say they get another kind (plastic).
Has anyone verified by purchase that this Amazon seller (or any other for that matter) has a splitter that actually handles the "hand-shaking" for devices that can't?
Can you post this claim of a plastic box? That's odd.
I got mine from Amazon, but from a different listing before they raised the price: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0089DVCT8
Despite the photo, there is no CVID logo on the box.
