Where do you watch movies online?

[SBR Lou]

There's some P2P cam broadcast sites that occasionally stream movies/music, where do you frequent?

I own 460+ DVDs and haven't seen 99 of them, so, yeah, haha

[jgm1967]

movies online are a pain to try and watch or at least download .they take up so much space,take forever to download and alot of times film companies put out fake downloads to discourage you from taping like half the movie is blank or error codes.

best solution i have found is get a netflix subscription,they have a sizeable collection of movies you can watch online,the best subscription for a movie service though by far is greencine.

ton of foreign movies,hard to find flicks,documentaries,etc..greencine is worth every penny

[purecarnagge]

netflix and a good dvd burner.

Maybe 10 years ago. But now you can watch the movie while it downloads (if you have at least DSL connection that is). Plus Netflix doesn't have movies that just premiered the past weekend. TVshack.net has em all. For free.

[losturmarbles]

none of this flv or torrent bs
the only way to go is newsgroups:

[SBR Lou]

Does anyone worry about being sent warning letters from your ISP?

[sickler]

I use torrents.

[Data]

The only place online to get quality (PQ wise) content is the Usenet. You must be computer literate to figure out how this works.

[sickler]

Torrents work great if you know the best place to go for them (piratebay)

[Data]

Torrents work great

Yes, they do work great for getting low quality content.

A movie must be watched on a good screen with a good sound, otherwise it is a waste of time and showing of disrespect to both, yourself and the creators.

Is Usenet one of the newsgroup things where you can D/L files and then piece them together with ISO creators or whatever? I remember one was called Usenext and it had a small fee to d/l like 30GB of crap a month but a free trial, I downloaded one program with it on the trial then never subscribed. Paranoid with that crap online.

No, it is the newsgroups.

I recall they provide a web interface to Usenet. Some may find that usefull but most Usenet users prefer newsreaders to access their servers.

Paranoid with that crap online.

No reason, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USENET#Legal_issues.

[zentiense]

Ninjavideo.net is the BEST for quality. However, their quantity is a bit smaller than other places--but that's because they only provide quality videos with quick load times. I'm continually impressed with them. Go check it out.

Your standards are obviously much higher than mine. DVD quality is fine with me and most other people.

File size is also important. If it's going to end up being 10 gig, most people will pass, especially if they plan on saving it.

It says the known warez binaries are filtered out, but lets be realistic, everyone knows all these various newsgroups movies/programs are all copyrighted material that shouldn't be shared.

I'm not sure it's a very comforting article other than for usenet providers under the Safe Harbor regulations. Whose to say one of the millions of files in the Usenet newsgroups don't have a tracker from FOX installed in it? Claiming ignorance is not a defense when violating copyright laws, maybe the Usenet providers can get out of it but what would the users say?

The most torrent movies are of lower quality than DVD. That aside, the HD is very affordable nowadays. Try it. The difference between DVD and Blu-Ray is huge. Do not you think you deserve the better?

File size is also important.

Of course. Generally speaking, the bigger the size, the better the quality.

If it's going to end up being 10 gig, most people will pass, especially if they plan on saving it.

The storage is very affordable too. Today's cost of storing 1GB of data is just pennies. So, if you want to save something, why would you save a crap copy if you could get something better for just a little more?

There is no sharing. The "tracking" is technically impossible. You only download. Unless you invite your neighbors and charge them for watching the movies you downloaded, there is nothing illegal in doing this.

Alright, so in other words, the only way they can install trackers is when you're also uploading at the same time? Because I know traditional torrents you have seeders/leechers all that crap, I actually downloaded a movie once and my ISP sent a warning letter with a note attached from FOX, I guess they had a tracker installed somehow.

So the files from a service like Usenext are clean by virtue, because of how you download them directly with no uploading at the same time or something?

There are no "trackers" in movie files. While you are downloading a file using torrent software you are sharing the parts of that file that you already downloaded. So, FOX had a few people hired to monitor torrents and see who shares their copyrighted content. Some of them did a search for the movie title you were downloading. He finds the same file as you did and sees that you are one of the users who shares their content. Then, you get the letter because you were downloading a wrong file at the wrong moment. That is all, no tracking, no magic, everything is pretty simple.

data - shhh

we don't want to advertise for newsgroups on a open forum. let the riaa and mpaa target torrents and p2p.

The beauty of this is that there is nothing they can do. Check out the link to wiki I posted earlier.

@data
they could (and have been) pressuring isps to throttle newsgroup traffic

@crazyl
thats a terrible plan
go to the link i posted earlier:

It is legit but it admittedly targets technically unsavvy users who cannot figure out that this is a rip off. 15 GB is the size of two DVDs or a half of a Blu-Ray disc. That is how much video you can get from them in a month! You will be much better off getting movies from Netflix.

Hint, you can likely download that much daily from your ISP's newsserver for free.
