How to download many images?

Question

PHP

There is a file containing a lot of links to images. The images are not large, BUT there are a lot of them.
I have two options
1. add this entire list to the database, and then pass it to rabbitmq and let it rock to its health.
2. rough and not beautiful, namely to increase the execution time of the script.
How to download them quickly and painlessly? How would you do it?

Answer 1

If for home use, then the second option - what's the point of wasting time if no one appreciates it? If we talk about work, then in most cases a js script is used that cyclically sends ajax requests to the php file loader until the data is fully loaded.

Answer 2

I would do it as here a bit modified or in general on perl

Answer 3

I would write a script in C# in 5 minutes.
