I'm not seeing a CAPTCHA on that site. Downloading the direct URL works
with curl for me. If you're seeing a CAPTCHA, then the site probably doesn't
like the IP address or browser you're on or for whatever reason doesn't want to
allow a scripted download. And if there were an easy way to bypass that CAPTCHA
when it appears, then the whole purpose of putting a CAPTCHA in the download
flow has failed.
