Has anyone else tried to download missed TV shows -- or did I just get ripped off of $29+...?

Can you try to go back to the website & try again to download the show? Maybe your internet setting have diasbled downloading & you need to download via FTP. Of course, that is if the company is legit. \n\nIf you have a problem with missing TV shows, TIVO is the absolute best!!! We have had it since it was first released, so we've had it for at least 5 years now! There is no problem with recording shows, and all shows are copyrighted. The new TV probably has a DVD recorder, so my guess is that maybe you can't save the shows onto a DVD for redistribution but I'm sure that you can save them to the Tivo hardrive for your future viewing. I could NOT live without my Tivo!!! You'll never try to have to buy a missed TV episode again. (: Tivo even records shows that I might like due to it having artificial intellignece. A regular recorder probably doesn't have this feature. In the morning, I wake up to find shows that I like and shows that I've programmed as a Season Pass. I never miss the Sopranos again. plus I get other shows I like. Tivo has so many features, it really makes watching TV enjoyable. \n\nNOTE:\nI was listening to the Kim Kommander Computer Radio Show, and a caller answerd a POP UP ad on the Internet for a TRIAL MOVIE. He had three days to cancel and he forgot to. Now the company who gave him the trial movies wants their money and they have messed up his PC. They will continue to mess up his PC even LOCK it up until they get the $$$. So, be careful of POPUPS and do have a Firewall, AntiVirus & Anti_Pest reunning on your PC. Be careful about offers for TV shows or movies unless you know who the company selling you the service is. Did you get ripped off? I don't know. Is there a phone number or website that you can go to to ask this company for help.

Several days after it went off-line, it reappeared announcing that it had been scammed by the ISP, then bounced off. It redirected to another site, which had the old list of shows and movies. Unfortunately I did not bookmark the new site, so I lost it, but I believe it's still out there somewhere. I'm looking for it too.\n\nHERE IT IS: http://www.tv-links.co.uk/index.html

I think you can purchase episodes of TV shows on iTunes. $1.99 each.

Do you honestly think that there are free iPods and DVD players out there just waiting for you?  There's no such thing as "free", unless it's a contest--and even then there may be a catch.\n\nRemember--if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

that is illegal, but try thepiratebay.com or torrentspy.com as they have it in torrents...you should pay for it in reality

Guess I can't fully relate, as I chose to 'pull the plug' on television (no cable, satellite, antenna) five years ago - I now use my old set to view DVD's and videos. Nice to not have to pay for the addiction, anymore!

If you have WinAmp, you can view all the episodes on WinAmp's internet tv. You can download the trial version of WinAmp at www.winamp.com. Not sure if internet tv is with the trial version or not. I payed $15 for the full version of it.

DON'T DO IT!!!!!!!!!\n\nI made the mistake of downloading 3 videos from there.  They were awful!  They have virtually no compatiblility.\n\nFirst off, they are copy-protected in some weird format (.gvp) that only their player can play, and you have to be connected to the internet to do this.  (And if you have to restore your computer, it will mess up the whole setup)\n\nSecond, they cannot play right.  I was irritated by constant skips in the video.  Fullscreen it's even worse.  I don't like buying 'defective' videos.\n\nThird, the color coding causes rainbows over things that should be white.\n\nFourth, you can do NOTHING with them.  You can't:\n>edit them\n>watch them with another media player\n>put them on a portable media player\n>burn them to DVD (according to them, "google video has no plans of making videos burnable to DVD")\n>do anything else you want to them

Why not write to the Snickers company and see if they can help you out.  Not everything that has ever been on TV is available for download though.

My friend bought one for 29.95 that promised 3500 channels. Turn out none of the channels were in the U.S.. All the channels were from around the world, and most in their own languages. He did get a few dozen English speaking channels. But, none from the U.S.. This is due to laws in the U.S. that prevent them from using their signals.\n\nCheck the program out, completely. Donot believe what the company tells you in their ads.\n\nRemember the old saying: Buyer Beware! Also: If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is!

Clicked your link, sent me to FOX, The vid window started to "buffer" and it took for ever, but the 24 clip played fine here. I did not use or open media player to do it though, I just clicked on their player.

I cancelled my Netflix membership last week.  It appears they're doing whatever they can to keep frequent users from getting their fair share of movies each month.  They claim they're losing money on subscribers who watch and return movies every other day.  Critics are calling the practice 'throttling'.\n\nDuring my last weeks with Netflix, I had two movies come up missing.  They never arrived in my mailbox.  I reported the delivery failure and they promised to send out duplicates. A few days after the replacements arrived, the original two movies mysteriously showed up back in their delivery center.  My hunch is that they never actually sent the first ones out, so I lost a week waiting for replacements that weren't strictly necessary.  They won't tell you there's a secret quota, but I've had long waits between rounds of shipping and receiving.

You could try some of the P2P programs like limewire, Morpheus, Kazaa etc. Other place to try would be to write to the local TV station and see if they will make a copy for you. This will probably come with a charge.

You have a few options - You can download WinMX and LimeWire, they are like Napster, and can be used to search for everything you could want. But the best thing to do is to download "BitComet", then you will have access to nearly every single TV show and movie you can imagine, all free:\n\nYou can get it here:\nhttp://www.bitcomet.com/\n\nAnd then use this search engine to find ANYTHING:\nhttp://www.torrent-find.com/\n\nYou'll never be bored again.

Use bitcomet, it downloads over bittorrent, by far the best and most easy program to use. Well yeah probably illegal. Also nice thing rent DVDs and rip them. Another great idea, find somebody who already downloaded these movies, and let them burn it for you. Saves you a lot of time.

Do you have Comcast as your ISP? Having the same problem for the last two months I can't download WMP 11, Defender, IE and everything else from Microsoft except the windows updates that are automatic. \n     I've searched other forums and so far the only relating factor has been Comcast but I don't see why that would be the problem considering that every other website isn't affected.\n     You are not the only one confused by this and it seems no one has the answer.
