Access Films Fast And Easy With Movie Download Sites

By Edward Chase

Have you watched any movies on your PC lately? What is the best way to download movies? Let's explore a few options if you don't have a DVD drive installed onto your computer. With the new technology, this is normally the case only in older computers, but may be the case if you chose not to include one in your new PC.

If you do happen to own an older computer, or have simply made the choice to not include a DVD drive in your computer build, not to worry. There are other very viable options for you to watch movies on demand. These range from illegal to legal, but they all work in one form or another. The software that you need for this is usually already installed on your PC or laptop.

Illegal options sometimes include user sites where people can upload movies from their own computers, and share them with others. The problem with this is that you don't know if these have been stolen, or if the person is knowingly or unknowingly uploading a virus. When you download the movie, you also damage your computer in the process. This is the main reason why you must agree to a harmless agreement before you can begin any downloading from the site. This prevents any future lawsuits from web users to their corporation.

More recently, brick and mortar business are starting to offer this service. Companies like Blockbuster have expanded their services to include online movies, and they can be delivered either online or through express mail. These are great options because you are paying to view them for an agreed upon amount of time, and the downloads are safe without fear of computer-crashing bugs being included.

Other companies have started out online and continue to grow with their subscription service. An example of this is Netflix and they are growing their subscriber list every day. The convenience they offer, along with a quality service, allows their customers to watch movies whenever they please, both on their computers and TVs.

If you would rather avoid downloading anything to your computer, you can also stream movies online. Most of the time, a video player is all that is needed, like Windows Media Player. Certainly, there are better versions of movie software out there and depending on your objective, may be more desirable to play your movies back with.

While there are no real rules to watching these movies, you'll notice I'm sure that some are pirated and some are not. Once these have been tagged as pirate movies, they are quickly removed. However, the danger of a virus is slightly removed, because there is not a download option.

If I were going to choose one, I would no doubt subscribe to a reputable company like Netflix. With all their customer service options and access features, they are a great choice. By using their subscriber movies, it also removes the threat of contamination by virus. Many times, they sent out customer appreciation gifts that reward loyal customers as well.
