A lot of us are interested in movies. for watching, do you download movies from torrent sites or you insist on buying DVDs from shops? Now, there are even sites which provide live streaming of movies. So, we have got a lot of options to watch a movie. so, what is your preferred way?
I download a lot of movies from torrent sites. Plus go to cinemas. I dont think i have ever bought a DVD or CD.
So, what do you think?

Hi there. Ive never downloaded any movie, due to having little memory on my computer or laptop, anyway, I dont have a problem with buying movies, especially when we have family nights in, watching movies and munching up pop-corn... Have a great day

Ihate to download movies from internet. I think this is just awaste of your time. Because movies quality is not good which we download from internet. Or it takes hours to download full movies.
I always like to buy DVDs and i also like it quality. I don't like ot watch a movie on my computer although i have a DVD rom.
I have my 29 inches television and i always like to watch new movies on it.
Thanks

no, i am downloading a lot of movies througjh torrents and the quality is just awesome. you cannot get that quality in DVDs. if you download using torrents, you are downloading the same dvd that is being sold. somebody in the world is uploading it for you and others.

Hi there vinubaby!
It will take lots of time to download movies through the internet because our internet connection is really slow. It will also affect other customers negatively especially those who are playing online games because downloading will cause them to lag.
I just buy dvds.

good. you are really great. you think about others convenience also. but in home, i am having 24 hours unlimted internet connection. so, iwill just keep my laptop on for a long time. on an average, it take one and a half days to download an english movie.
still it is ok for me.

I used to buy DVDs but i realized it's just a waste of money. I watch the movie once and after that the DVD lies somewhere around the house and it has no use. I download the movies now and after i watch them i just delete them. It's easy, it does not require money and now it's illegal.

yup. even i do the same now. but if you have a DVD, you can keep it for ever, if at all you feel like watching that movie once again sometime down the line. what i do is i will keep the movies only which i like the most. i will write them in to a cd or a dvd and keep them for ever.

I just rent them through Netflix before that i rented them. My bf buys the ones he really likes. I watch alot of movies. My son use to get them from online but he stopped doing that. I know of a few people that still do that, i tried to do it but i am not very bright on burning them. Renting is the way to go i guess for me.

its a good option to take rented cds. you are paying only less for that, and returning it back after seeing. money saving, time saving. good
