Movie Downloading Has Many Options

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.

The online movie feature is great because it allows you to watch quality films instantly. The ?Watch Instantly? section literally takes seconds to access a movie. You also get unlimited access to this feature.

This site and other sites like it are unique in their own way. They are both practical and convenient for the web designer and the movie watcher. Practicality is the driving reason behind their creation.

On Netflicks, movies are updated daily. While most of the movies are not the newest, there is a good mixture of classics, modern, independent and oldies. You never know what films are going to pop up on site.

If you are undecided on a film or just curious you can check out the membership feedback. Netflicks has implemented a four star rating system in which the average rating is compiled for you. If that is not specific enough, then you can read individual postings where you can see real feedback of the movie.

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.

If you are going to put movies on your there you should have at least 8 gigabytes of memory. As stated above it is fairly easy to put movies on the Ipod touch. In fact, I found it to be a lot easier to put my downloaded movies on there then it was to burn them.

Another problem is that some of the movies are poor quality. If you are going to use a site like this, make sure it is one with viewer feedback. A lot of movies will be broken up into separate links and part one and two work but part three does not.

With the Iphone, you can access certain streaming videos and watch clips right from Youtube and other sites alike. With the Iphone, it is as simple as using your web browser. For a 4 gigabyte Iphone you can expect around $500 and a contract with AT&T.

It is weird to think that we can now carry our downloaded movies around in our pockets. It is weird to think that we can stop a movie clip from the internet to answer the phone with the same product. Once again I say that it cannot get any better than this. - 16036
