A large percentage of internet users spend their time on the web, searching and downloading movies using illegal tactics. Have you ever wondered whether downloading movies on the internet, the illegal way, is a good or a bad thing? How does this affect us and things around us? What are the consequences for movie producers and small video clubs? Let’s discuss some of these issues here in this article. Keep reading…
Is it a safe avocation to download movies using illegal practices? Why would you illegally download a movie? Questions that could cross your mind but you forget them as soon as you think of several simple answers. The most common answer is that if downloading movies with illegal practices is a bad thing, then what about those people who upload the movies in the first place? It’s easy to assume that nothing bad could happen to you as a downloader, since nothing bad happens to the uploaders.
Another benefit of downloading movies online using illegal ways is that the movies are free and you don’t have to go to the local video club, rent one and pay money for it. Most people who have internet access and know how to use it, will probably choose to download a movie instead of going to a video club. Let’s not forget that if they choose to rent a movie from the local store they will be held responsible for the DVD disk (if something happens to it, they will have to pay for it). By getting the movie from the internet, more money will remain in their pockets and they won’t have to worry about any DVD disk.
Talking about money, movie producers and companies seem to be the big losers. Their earnings are reducing everyday day, and this is more than a rumor. If you ask me though, I don’t think they lost any money, well maybe a little. But if that was true they wouldn’t keep producing expensive movies. Those who are really going to be affected from the fact that more and more people download movies online are the owners and employees of video clubs.
Perhaps big chains of video clubs won’t be affected so much since they make profits from renting or selling other products such as video games, movie wallpapers etc. But the small neighborhood video clubs will suffer the real consequences. Their profits will definitely reduce and as a result the owners of the video clubs won’t be able to maintain their business and keep their employees safe. All of the above are a chain reaction which follows anyone who downloads a movie online.
The illegal way to download a movie is easy to employ and you don’t need your credit card. It involves searching the torrent file of a movie. Chances are that you will find any movie you are looking for online using this way. If you are searching for an english / american movie and you are non-english, then it won’t be so hard to find the subtitles of the movie as well.
Enough talking about the illegal movie downloading on the internet. There’s also a nice and LEGAL way to do it. You can use something called rapid share. It is easy to use but you have to pay with your credit card. It is the modern video club and you don’t have to walk to it. Best of all it’s very easy to search and find the movie you are looking for instead of scrambling in the local video store’s shelves.
There’a also another LEGAL and best of all SAFE way to search and download movies (more at the end of this article)
It is your decision which ways you will follow, the legal ones, the illegal ones or maybe a mixture of both ways. I know many people who have chosen the illegal way. We live in an expensive world and people simply don’t like spending money for something they could find for free. Maybe they don’t like going to the cinema or visiting their local video club to rent a movie or even using their credit cards to buy a movie online.
If you are like those people you must know that by utilizing illegal ways to download movies you are actually braking laws and if you make it a habit you will likely suffer the consequences someday. I have read cases of people who where charged and paid a lot of money to movie companies because of illegal movie downloading. On the other hand only a few cases of illegal movie UPLOADERS were brought to court.
Someone once said, “Perhaps the same companies who produce the movies, also upload them and offer them for free so as to sue the people who download them. That is their way for gaining extra money…”. I don’t know whether this is just a rumor or a true fact but it seems highly unlikely for movie producers to engage in activities such as uploading their own copyrighted material for people to download them for free.
The question is, how come it’s possible to find practically any movie using “illegal” ways? And the way to find it and download it is so simple that even a child could employ it. So what should we do? Forget about laws and the interest of movie producers (most of them are already rich)?
Well the easy answer is that anyone who is smart enough should download movies online using illegal, free ways and be afraid of nothing. After all movie companies already make enough money from the box office. Enough to produce more and more expensive movies. Moreover we see most movies covering their cost, in just a week, from cinema tickets. There are many movie fans who like a movie and watch it several times.
But you must know that laws are there for some reason. And anyone who employs illegal tactics will eventually pay the consequences. So what will you do? It’s up to you…
