All downloading of anyhting copyrighted is illegal. If you are not paying for the music/movie/ whatever, then the producer is not making money, therefore YOU get in trouble =(. Any P2P sdharing can be legal, but not if you are downloading copyrighted items, because that is copyright infringement. If you download some neighborhood garage band, then that would be OK, as long as they don't care, but if it is like Britney Spears or something , then yes, it is illegal.

if you don't want to break any rules stay away from file sharing. other than that there is a ton of free stuff and information on the net that is completely legal. also look into opes source software if you feel up to it nobody owns it and its free to use.

i think what you should do is use P2P Software and download the full version. Usually some software which have trial version are usually better then the free ones

The TORRENT file is just a file that keeps track of all the bits and pieces of a file. ( pun intended )\n\nThe actual sites do NOT have the files you want, just the torrent files you can use to retrieve them.\n\nMany LEGITIMATE places use Torrents for their downloads. Most LINUX distributions do. Places like The Pirate Bay and Torrentspy do not sort out the torrents they have.\n\nDownloading is NOT ILLEGAL.

Thats because it is illegal to reproduce copyrighted material, you computer knows this. There is software you can find to decrypt the video, but how about just participating in the free market, and buy movies the legal way, freeloader.

That's piracy if you're copying rented movies.  I would find something slightly more legal if I were you.

Bit torrrent or Limewire all are same. They allow people to share files among them. As such there use is not illegal but if using them to copy a movie or song from other's person pc, then it is piracy which is illegal. (When u download through a torrent then u actually download from other people's PC)

Any video, including trailers and clips, are going to be in the format of .avi, .mpg, .mov, .bin and .cue files, etc.  In finding a full movie on any peer-to-peer program, you should try seeing if any of them have "full" with the name or how large the file size is.  Most full movies are going to be around 700 MB or so.  I hope this helps.

If you don't want torrents, you're pretty much out of luck...\n\nYou see, if you run a website, it's pretty easy to track down who's providing the service... and sue/arrest them.\n\nThat's why almost all copyright infringement has gone peer-to-peer.

Because the films you download using bittorents are HIGH-quality videos, usually DVD quality. The ones you get from p2p softwares, such as limewire are LOW quality videos.

They own a copy of the product, but not the product itself.\n\nAnd it's not illegal to download, but it is illegal to upload music, movies, etc.

the easyest way for free unlimited dowloads is search for "Limewire" on google. then download it. it may take a while but youll find it trust me. you just have to have patience.

general rule is any site or program like kazaa or limewire will have its faults, many virus's seem to get thru it.\nfile size and format is one thing to always watch, i have yet to hear of a totally free p2p site.\npersonally limewire is esier to use than any others.\nagain be carefull on what you choose to download and make sure your anti-virus is up todate.

if it is a tiny 64kb or so file that says it needs a license then its probably a bogus clip that will hook up with another site adn download adware and trojan virus' to your comp.  Delete it.\n\nIf it seems to be a legitimate size- 50mb and above then u probably just need to update your codecs.
