The internet makes both popular movies as well as rarely available films obtainable to you, with a few simple clicks of the mouse.

You should consider three options for simple movie downloads from the internet:

Option #1 - "Shareware" Software

There are now websites that offer members unlimited movie downloads for paying a one-time only membership fee. They usually cost around $35-$45 and you can then login and download movies whenever you want.

These sites are quickly becoming the most popular option. The selection is massive - you can find new releases along with all the "golden oldies" as well. Also, many of them let you download TV shows and music as well.

These sites are run by professional businesses, so they are authenticated and download speeds are high. This way, you are safe from viruses and don't waste much time.

Another nice option is that these sites will usually give you the option to burn the movies onto DVD so you can watch them on your TV. It's a handy tool to have.
