Movie/television Download-view Sites> - RichE - 02-26-2008

I was just wondering, besides Lycos, Joox and Joost-how many of these movie and television view/download sites are there? How would you rate them? Are they free or pay?
Let's hear your input!

When in the US, I use either Amazon or the network itself. I've never looked at the other sites. Problem is now, I can't download to here in Ireland - I can't even WATCH episodes on the web from here... Absolute bummer Sad

Network itself is free. Amazon is pay. Network just allows you to watch any time, not to save, although, I am sure someone who is more computer savvy than I am can.

Quit yer bitchin'! When it's all said and done, you're in frickin' IRELAND and I'm stuck in Northwest Indiana under 8 inches of snow. You wanna trade places right now? I've got Direct TV and a 50" plasma to watch it on. I would trade places with you for the next two weeks just to wander around the Emerald Isle. My vision of Heaven always was uncannily similar to the Irish landscape. Wouldn't it be ironic if I died and went to Heaven (yes, that in itself would be ironic, but that's not my point) and St. Peter greeted me at the door of an Irish pub.

St. Peter: Biggles, old boy, c'mon in and have a pint o' Guinness!
Biggles: St. Peter? Is that you?
P: Aye laddie! 'Tis me!
B: You're Irish?
P: Nay laddie, but like everyone else, I wish I were!
B: So this is Heaven, then?
P: Of course, me boyo! You already did your time in Hell!
B: So northwest Indiana is.....
P: Of course! Why the He......ck do ye think the good Lord dumped so much rain and snow on you each year? He was just testing you!
B: So the rain, the flooding, the snow, the flooding, the droughts, the flooding, the potholes, the crooked politicians, the "Murder Capital of the Galaxy", the endless road construction, the boring flat landscape, the Bears, the Blackhawks.......
P: All a test, me boy. Since you aren't Roman Catholic, we don't do purgatory here (for you at least--Sean O'Flaherty, the next guy in line, is a Roman Catholic, so he needs to do the PG, as we call it). Your time in northwest Indiana has tested you well. Even though you cursed like a longshoreman every time your basement flooded or your power failed, you are on your way to the green fields of Ireland, which you now know as Heaven!

You need to get sopcast or tvu player

Then visit http://www2.myp2p.eu/

You can watch all sorts of tv

I generally use it to get live NFL when Sky aren't showing the game

However there maybe entertainment on there as well

And that is a bad thing....wait, don't you have to die in battle to go to Valhalla?


Movie/television Download-view Sites> - RichE - 02-27-2008

Sure...
LIFE IS A DAILY BATTLE!!!!!!
Do you think Erik The Red would make it in today's world? Do you see Leif The Lucky driving his kids to a softball game after school? How about Thor at Tax time?
Nope...I not only earned my way into Valhalla I'm going to lease it out as a casino (I can see Rhine Maidens as hatcheck girls and bartenders!).

The problem with movies today is there in no real gimmicks (If I was screening the film GHANDI, I would, like John Waters imagined, turn off the AC during the summer run, close the refreshment stand, then crank up the heat to 90! 90 minutes into the film I would have ushers release several bottles of horseflys on the sweating patrons.
The gimmick to get people into the theatre would be they would experiance India as never before! Not to mention the aroma of curie!).
