If you think that Beautiful Soup is difficult than wait till you try to do this with regexes. Granted you know the exact format of the HTML you are scraping will help, if you ever need to parse HTML from an unknown source than Beautiful Soup is the only way to go. Not all HTML authors close their td and tr tags, and sometimes there are attributes to those tags. If you plan on ever reusing the code or the format of the HTML may change, then you are best off sticking with Beautiful Soup.
