A: HI Barry,

Good question, and one we get on a regular basis. To tell the truth there is a white hat answer and a black hat answer. I'll go over each below:

White Hat:
There are legal movie download sites like CinemaNow which is backed by some heavy hitters in Hollywood. They actually offer a pretty good service with a very good movie selection including 'ehem' Mature titles. Also they just added a 'Burn to DVD' option which makes it very conveinent. Movies come out to be much less then buying in the stores. I would say try it out for free and see what you think. The worst that could happen is that you download and burn a movie or two for free.

Another white hat option is to try out BlockBuster Online, where you get DVD's sent to mailbox. You can find out more about Blockbuster Online here.

Black Hat:
Ok now it get tricky. There are many member sites where you can download almost anything you can think of. Net Movie Downloads is one such site. Basically search for what you want download it and burn it to a disc for safekeeping. The choice is yours on this one, but just remember that 'Hollywood' does not support this.

So there you have it. Downloading movies online is easy with these services. And really it's a bargin because they make it so easy. Enjoy and thanks for writing in.

Do you have another answer or suggestion? Let us know!
