There are plenty of options in downloading and/or watching movies online. To start with, like music downloading, downloading movies online usually meant doing something illegal. These days, there are various places to download or watch movies online. The illegal options will be still available, bear in mind, although the legal movie sites are picking up steam. The following article shall focus on the legal online sites to watch full movie and/or download movies.

There are plenty of options around. Each site offers their very own pricing model, selection, movie formats, and user experience.

There are 2 main pricing models that the on-line movie download sites use - monthly subscriptions and per download pricing.

Sites which provide monthly subscriptions give unlimited downloads, for a flat monthly cost. CinemaNow, Netflix, and Vongo operate under this model.

The other major pricing model, per download pricing, is precisely what it sounds like. There will be a fee for each movie download. Amazon Unbox and iTunes operate this way.

Unless you are not planning on watching very many movies in a month, the flat monthly fee will be the way to go. There's also some movies that are readily available for free from each of the services and various free trials are available to try them out.

The selection varies from service to service. New releases are hit or miss. Movies appear to be available on DVD and then for rental prior to being available for download. CinemaNow seems to get the movies more quickly than the others. iTunes selection is the most limited of the major services.

The predominant file format for the download services is Windows Media Video files (.WMV). iTunes will be the obvious exception, which offers files as MPEG-4s.

Each service requires you to download their software so that you can download and watch movies. Each interface is unique, but its really a matter of personal preference. Vongo and CinemaNow each have good interfaces.
