Many Choices When Downloading Movies

By George Benson

If you go to Blockbuster and rent a movie it can cost a minimum of $5.30. If you rent at least four movies a week the total comes to around $20 a month. That only covers four movies that will you have to return on time within a week.

As downloadable movies became more and more popular so did the technology to access them. As a young adult, I had thought we had reached the height of technology when I saw that CD. I was so mistaken and it would only be a few years later that I would feel like that again.

There are plenty of examples on the internet. One site that has recently gained popularity is the site Mytheater.org. Currently, there are roughly 600 movie links on this site to choose from.

So, if you are looking for one to put some movies on, what are some of the products that you can buy? How much can you plan on spending? How hard is it to put movies that you downloaded on your Ipod?

The most recent release is the Ipod Touch. There are endless amount of option with this but for movies, this is the product to have. All your movies can be watched in color and wide screen.

By having only the link, your webpage can be relatively small therefore it keeps site maintenance relatively easy. It also frees the designer from any legal problem because they do not possess the actual movie. They only have the html addresses to the movies.

For the movie viewer, it is easy to find what you are looking for. These sites are usually broken down by categories. The homepage to the site is usually full of the most recent movies on the internet.

There are some problems with movie download sites. Because you are dealing with copy write problems, there are a lot of dead links that you will click on. You will sometimes be redirected to a page that has nothing to do with the movie.

Another product that Apple has released was the Iphone. While it does not have the same movie features as the Ipod touch, it does have excellent internet abilities. With the Iphone, you can access movie sites and not have to worry about loading the movies.

Sites like this are also full of annoying advertisements and pop-ups. The best thing to do is to turn your pop-up blocker on until you find the movie you want. Then turn it off because a new window needs to open when you click on the link.

These sites are great when you are looking for a quick movie and do not have the money to go rent. They are a dime a dozen and they go away as fast as they appeared. So do not be surprise when you go back to it and see a furniture advertisement instead. - 15615
