Here's How To Download Movies Online - Am I a Bad Friend?
The other day, I got an email from a friend asking if he could borrow my DVD of "Scarface". I wrote him back and told him to stop bothering me and just download it.
While I was more polite about it that that, I think he was a little taken aback at first!
What I meant to tell him is that he didn't have to go find a DVD; you can find any movie you want if you have an internet connection.
More and more people have been asking us what the best way to download movies online is, and whether it is possible to find a big selection online.
I'd like to tell you that there is indeed a big selection online; better than any video store out there, in fact. Not only can you find Scarface, but you can find old favorites and new releases alike.
Now that that's out of the way, let's talk about the question so many of you have ? "Where can I download movies online?"
First, I think it's important to mention where NOT to go to download movies. There are a number of "shareware" programs such as Kazaa or Limewire that people use to find music, movies or other files online. These don't work too badly for music, but for movies they are horrendous.
When you download movies from these networks, you have a good chance of catching a virus! These networks are unmonitored, so you have no idea what exactly you are downloading.
These networks also suffer from a poor selection and slow download speeds.
Movies are huge files; on these networks, it can take days to download a movie! The selection is also very limited compared to other sources.
Your next option is to use some type of paid download service. There are different websites that let you download movies for a "per download" fee. You search for a movie, pay a fee for the download (about $10), and are able to have the movie over a secure network at a good download speed.
It's not a bad option, but there's a much cheaper way to find and download movies with equal quality.
There are now specialty, membership-based movie download websites that let you download unlimited movies from their database simply by logging in to their website. To become a member, you pay a one-time only fee (about $35-45 usually) and are then able to download movies whenever you want.
The great thing about these sites is that you only have to pay once for access to a huge selection of movies. The download speeds are good and they are guaranteed to be free of viruses.
The best download sites will also provide you with software to burn these movies to DVD so you can watch them on your TV instead of only on your computer.
Did my friend find Goodfellas?
She did. And I don't think she'll be asking me to loan her any DVDs anytime soon!
With an increasing number of people looking to the web for movie downloads, you'll see the number of brick and mortar video stores declining. Downloading movies, after all, is easy ? you can find all your favorites without even leaving the house!
