What is required to show a copyrighted movie in public?
149384
it is illegal for you to charge admission to the film without paying the film rights owner/making arrangements with them. (however, if it's a very old film, and is in the public domain, that's different. but mostly that means you're not likely to be showing it as a fundraiser.) \n\nhowever, there is nothing wrong with asking for donations FOR YOUR ORG (making clear that you are not charging for the film) at that event, which would be a way to fundraise.

If you want something that is *ahem* legal, I would recommend the following:\n\nFor full free movies, the best source is the Internet Archive, which allows you to download hundreds of movies in the public domain. This is the address: http://www.archive.org/details/movies\n\nThere are some really great movies in the public domain. Two very good ones are "Nosferatu" and "Night of the Living Dead." They can be downloaded from the following places:\n\nhttp://www.archive.org/details/nosferatu\nhttp://www.archive.org/details/night_of_the_living_dead\n\nThere are some really strange ones, such as "Popeye the Sailor Meets Ali Baba's Forty Thieves."

www.mp3.com for free music\n\nMost movies are protected by copyright laws.\nMost music is too.\n\nConsider carefully before treading on other sites, is a felony record really worth it to watch a movie?

Ah yes, the copyright war wages on. In order to get around protection you'll need a cracker program. You'll probably be able to find one on the Internet, but I wouldn't recommend that. The cops are probably watching all of those sites. Your best bet would be to write your own. I have a friend whose dad burns DVDs he rents at family video and puts them on Cd's. No one known how he does this, but he can. I think tat he has a cracker, or a very powerful burner. You need to get both of these things to do what you want, but be careful. When you're burning the movies, remove the Internet cable from your computer.

Copyrighted movies: you cannot legally do this.\n\nYou can purchase some downloadable films via Google's new video service, Apple's iTunes store and various other palces.\n\nwww.ifilms.com allow you to watch amateur videos.\n\nBut I belive the intent of your question was more how to DL major motion pictures and that is illegal and cannot be answered here at Yahoo.
