Downloading Popular Classic Movies

By Agape Marketing and MixedApples

Online movie downloads have changed the entertainment industry in a big way. In fact, you not only have access to recent movies but the classics, as well.

This time saving method, easy accessibility and the power of personal choices have made online classic movie downloads a widely popular option. But only a few sites offer the classics as an option.

Although it may take some doing, you can locate movie download sites that provide a wide array of the classics.

The 2008 movie downloads review has recently published its report on various popular online download sites. The best are:

Amazon Unbox - Vango - Apple iTunes - Wal-mart Video Downloads - Netflix - EZTakes - MovieFlix - TotalVid - CinemaNow - Movielink

These sites provide the option to download movies from the Internet in a fast and authorized manner. However, if you are looking for classic movie downloads, then you need to search a bit further.

Illegal sites are a no-no. Poor quality or even unplayable conditions are the least of your worries.

Viruses and all sorts of spyware, adware and/or malware are generally attached to the movie downloads, ready to wreak havoc on your PC. Seek out sites that abide by stringent codes for classic movie downloads.

Here is a basic guide for classic movie downloads:

1. Obtain a membership on a site with massive classic movie databases and collections. The best choice is a one-time-fee only site that provides great customer support after the sale.

2. Classic movie downloads possess audio and video text, so make sure your download software accommodates for more than iPod downloads alone.

3. Use the option to download from a link as 'download files' or go with the HTTP method or FTP. With http, a new window will open where you only have to drag the link to a folder to start downloading. FTP allows you to directly connect with the movie server and simply drag and drop the file into a folder. You may also right click on the online file and select the download option 'save target as'.

4. You will need a media player such as Real Player, Windows Media Player or Quick Time Player to enjoy your downloaded classic movies. Download speed is dependent on your Internet service provider, size of the file, video codec system and the movie server speed.

700MB is the usual size of a classic movies download file. Connection speed of 56Kbps and transfer rate of 7KB/s translates to a very slow download transfer time of 28 and a half hours. Raising the connection speed to 10Mbps with a 1.25MB/s transfer rate lowers the time to 12 minutes.
