There are many options in downloading and/or watching movies online. First off, like music downloading, downloading movies online usually meant doing something illegal. These days, there are lots of places to download or watch movies online. The illegal options are still available, bear in mind, though the legal movie sites are picking up steam. The following article shall focus on the legal websites to watch and/or download movies.

There are a lot of options available. Each site offers their own pricing model, selection, movie formats, and user experience.

You can find 2 main pricing models that the internet movie download sites use - monthly subscriptions and per download pricing.

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

The additional major pricing model, per download pricing, is exactly 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. Additionally, there are some movies that are readily available for free from each of the services and various free movies online trials will be accessible to try them out.

The selection varies from service to service. New releases are hit or miss. Movies seem to be available on DVD and for rental just before being readily available for download. CinemaNow appears to get the movies more quickly than the others. iTunes selection will be 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 in order to download and watch movies. Each interface will be different, but its really a matter of personal preference. Vongo and CinemaNow each have good interfaces.
