The net is crawling with all kinds of sites that offer unlimited movie downloads. The question is, which movie sites are legal?

I have looked at other movie downloading sites, only to find they are not claiming to be legal. One even says to not use the word "legal" if you are promoting them. Why would they say that?

Be wary of sites, that offer file-sharing networks. These sites will have amazing graphics and appear to be legal. Unfortunately, these peer to peer networks, are not able to guarantee a legal movie download. Make sure the site is backed by major movie studios, such as MGM.

Here is a question that maybe you have asked yourself, "are legal movie downloads reasonably priced?" If you support legal movie downloads, more doors may open up for lower pricing and better viewing quality.

6 Reasons for Legal Movie Downloads:

Looks better than a bootleg movie

There is nothing worse than watching an illegal bootleg movie, where someone sneaked in their video recorder. Imagine the thrill of squinting your eyes and trying to figure out what the fuzzy dark figures are doing.

Outstanding quality film downloads

A good movie download site will have cutting edge technology. The viewing will be very close to watching a dvd on your tv. Again this is where major movie studios, backing the site will ensure good quality.

You will not be punished by law

Many people think that they can get away with an illegal movie download. Maybe for a while they can get away with it, but remember that a person can be tracked right back to their internet service provider address. Imagine getting caught and being charged a stiff penalty. Is it really worth taking the chance?

Piracy might raise the cost of legal downloads

If you support legal movie downloading you will be apart of the solution and not the problem. Would you want to see legal movie downloads go up in price?

Netflix - Possible movie downloads in the future

Picture Netlflix providing legal movie downloads! Over the last year, Netflix has been considering the concept of internet movie downloads. This would be a fantastic way to download your movies and become a long-standing member with Netflix. Would you choose Netflix or Blockbuster?

Watch in the privacy of your own home

You've had a long day at work and the last thing on your mind is going to the nearest movie theatre. You don't want to fight the traffic, you don't want to stand in line, and you can pop popcorn at home.

Picture yourself saving money and watching a relaxing movie at home. Imagine your spouse gently massaging your back, while you both watch a sexy thriller! Would you choose a crummy bootleg or a quality legal movie download?
