I downloaded movies tonight. it takes time to wait and the speed of computer will be slower than it was. I will not log on the internet all the time, so download is a good way, in case of disconnection of the link.What about you guys? And if download, what types of tools would like to choose, BT, emule or thunder?

I like download and watch it later. If it's good, then I will keep it. If not, I just delete it and that's not a problem. I don't watching online because its quality isn't as clear as the download version. I like to use emule as everything is in a good order.
I love China

I did back when I was still a teenager. I don't anymore because of viruses and the fear of getting caught, lol. Anyway back then my computer wasn't as fast as it is now. If you want to watch movies and TV shows, I'd recommend watching them online. It's easier and a little bit safer and worth it. But if you want to use torrents try Utorrent.

Hi lynettebyc, I also enjoy downloading movies. When I have the chance, I usually get DVDs to save time because as you said, it takes a while for movies to download. But if I have the time, then I use torrent to get my movies. It's faster and the quality is usually good. I'm not familiar with the tools you mentioned above so I wouldn't know if any of them were good, but I really have to say that my torrent sharing works well for me. Depending on the number of seeds, downloading a complete movie usually takes around 3 days to complete. Thats just me though because I don't have my laptop switched on 24/7. Just so you know, I go to thepiratebay.org and mininova.org for my movies. If you plan to do this, make sure to get only "dvd rip" movies because these are clearer than others. Also check on the number of seeders as well as the comments that members have posted. Aside from downloading, you may also want to try viewing it live. If you have a good connection, you can watch livestream movies at some sites that host them.

Hello, mimico, wow, thanks for spending your time giving such a detailed respose. The download tool you mention"torrent" is BT as i kown. And i heard from my colleagues today that this tool will do harm to hard disc.
Online don't have to wait, but the uality's not that good. I try once in a while.

i think download is the best way for get your favourite movie .it is because of several factor.when you watch movie online sometime it will become hang in the middle of the movie so it will make us angry and loss mood to watch the movie because of the internet connection slow or elsewhere....usually i use BT to download because it efficiency and more faster.

Hello, zulampard,yeah, i don't like being caught in the middle of a movie, it's frustrated to watch. The quality of sound and image are better than that watch online
