    I need some clarification. You cant download films legally. You can download user made movies on many sites. So, we dont support piracy here, so if your looking to download free movies, expect plenty of viruses, trojans and spyware :( If that was what you wanted, dont respond at all. If you need something legal, let us know :)

    Maybe im going about this the wrong way....or maybe i should explain myself better.....i was told to use morpheus to download movies..i think it is a P2P or something like that...is that legal or is it not legal....as i said i don't know much about this stuff...I appreciate any information that you can give me.... As far as Virus's go and all of that i don't want any of them....or plan to give them to anyone.....I have already downloaded spybot and avg from this site...

    Spybot and AVG arent much help once you execute something. Basically, if you saw it in the movie theatre, or it costs money, its probably illegal. While there are ways to do it, and I am no saint, we simply do not assist people in illegal activities. Hope that clarifies it for you. Most P2P programs are designed to download applications, movies and music illegally.

    If you want to get cheap movies online you can get DvDs delivered from netflix.com but p2p download networks are illegal and as major attitude said full of malware.

    DVD's, if you shop around, are pretty cheap these days.

    Personally, I don't think it's worth all the hassle (or risk) to try to copy them.

    I'd rather spend the money on the genuine item, and it's not that much.


    And Welcome to MajorGeeks crapaglia, you've found the best forum on the internet. :)

    Well copying for personal backup use is fine - just downloading films without paying for them isn't.

    Using P2P is generally a very good way to get your computer completely full with crap. Bittorrent can be a legitimate source of large files, however, providing you download from a reasonabley trusted source. IPTV makes good use of torrents.

    A co-worker spent about two days downloading a movie on dialup only to view it and find it was from a hand held camera smuggled into a movie theatre.
