Absolutely Free Movie Downloads - Time to End This Hoax
Gone are the days of watching just previews and snapshots of movies on the internet. Modern internet technologies are giving internet users the power to watch movies online, along with facilities for downloads. Earlier MP3s, trailers and music videos had dominated the download arena in entertainment. The commercial possibilities for movies on the internet was initially identified and utilized by movie rental service providers. But with higher bandwidths being made available by internet service providers (ISPs), and with the increased popularity of file sharing networks, more and more online companies have started providing movies for download.
It is only recently that these download services have been made available absolutely free of cost to users. Even today most commercial websites have their download services which require users to download movies by pay per download scheme and some others require their users to pay an initial amount for downloading unlimited movies. But the situation is now changing with more and more websites offering absolutely free movie downloads.
Websites offering absolutely free movie downloads often use a combination of various technologies to provide easy downloads. One such technology adopted is using codecs for reducing the size of movies, as original packaging of movies in DVDs has file sizes of 4GB or more. In the original DVD format, it will take an enormous amount of time for users to download a full movie.
With codecs such as DivX and XviD, the quality of movies remain the same even after being compressed from their original DVD formats. Before downloading, it will be better to make sure that the movies you are downloading are either in Xvid or DivX format as these offer better quality video and audio with less file sizes in the range of 600-700MB. All you are required to do is to install in your computer the corresponding codec used for video compression. These codecs are available for free download from their respective websites.
While there are many methods for absolutely free movie downloads online, the easiest of all methods is using a file sharing network such as BitTorrent or Kazaa. Although movie downloads have increased, it can be seen that it has not yet completely affected the DVD market, although sales have fallen. The main factor which works in favor of absolutely free movie downloads is the widespread availability of broadband internet even in remote corners of the world. Other reasons which are promoting these free downloads are the savings in terms of time and money, which is otherwise required by movie lovers in physically searching and buying movies from rental shops.
