movie downloads (legal)
Where do you get your legal movie downloads from?
What place is best and not a bogus 'take your money and run" site?

The only legal way to make a movie fle is to purchase the DVD, then rip the DVD to whatever file format you want (MPG4 is the best).

You could record them from tv... I think that's still legal. Crappy quality, but who cares? You've already seen the movie...

Crapy Quality? My Media Center PC grabs movies in MPEG2, looks pretty good to me.

From the Movielink website:
"Watch now or up to 30 days later"
So you don't get to "own" the movie, more just a rental from your desktop. Still not a bad deal though... only $1.99-$4.99 per movie. The same or cheaper then Blockbuster.

I have actually used movielink, it's awesome. the movies are great quality.
and the servers are fast enough to let you watch and download at the same time.

Technically, in the U.S. that's not legal either, because you have to break the encryption.

Good point.
I just use Netflix. No complaints at all with them, not to mention the price went down recently :P.
