Ummmm because its more convenient to stream. You have a whopping 4 movies that you've already seen taking up space on your sd card. With something like this you have thousands of movies at your disposal and no need to wait to download to have to watch it

This is something I couldnt care less about. I have zero interest in watching a movie on a 4 inch screen with not so great mono sound. It works ok in a pinch for a game or maybe a TV show, but I would never watch a full length film on my phone. I have a laptop or an iPad to watch things away from home.

What about travel?

If you use headphones (and frankly, why wouldn't you?) it's in stereo. And the 4.3" screen held at 12" is the same perceived size as a 42" HDTV viewed at 10 feet.

From our phone? it doesn't exist

From the mail/internet. Yes its sweet but we use redbox.

My answer is SLINGBOX PLAYER.... All the movies, news, TV shows I'll ever need when I'm not home to watch my 73" Mitsubishi Diamond screen TV.
SlingBox works great with my HD DVR so I can do a little time shifting and the best thing is there are NO MONTHLY or RENTAL FEE's

Obviously BS or you would not have clicked on this thread.

 

[Roadblock]

Legal? Just asking.

Eh, about the same as downloading an MP3 or having your buddy burn you a copy of a new music CD, That or viewing free porn ripped from a pay site.

Which I don't think anyone now days can honestly say they have NEVER done that.

Critic. Even disabling popups on the site you listed still gives me popups and no live streaming vid. Maybe I am missing something.

Are you using the default android browser? Do you have the flash set to "on demand" ?

^That.

I highly recommend

Veoh

It lets you watch full length Veoh videos and movies via streaming. I just watched several minutes of "Day of the Dead" without any pauses.

Remember to thank me.

Oh and addthe bookmark as a shortcut to your on-screen and you've got an app.

Hm.

I'd rather pay for a service that enables me to watch anything that's released on dvd/blu-ray on demand, but thanks.

Just, downloaded date night, inception, and a-team straight to phone took 20 minutes for the 700 mb .avi files.when I'm done delete and get more 32gig sticks can hold a lot of shit. Why would you waIt for an app when your phone can do damn near everything your computer can. I can even download new cds in rar format and unpack straight on my phone.

what are using? torrents? or something else? and what client? feel free to PM me

 

[blondiefk]

I would prefer an app because I have no idea what I am doing with my phone. I would live to download Inception directly to my phone but I don't know the difference between file types, how to download them or how to access them.

I need an android tutorial class. Or just a computer class.

Because some people want to do it legally. Also, a lot of folks stream to PS3 or Xbox with Netflix, so this would be icing on the cake.

how does the blockbuster app work? does it dl the whole movie at once or stream? i'm not a big fan of streaming, even though my slingbox app has been pretty good to me.

Here is a link to a guy giving his review of the Blockbuster app on Droid X. He wasn't to happy about it.

I think I'll wait for Netflix since I have an account with them already.

Why is everything a secret? Just say where you downloaded all these great unreleased movies from so we can do it too!

 

[SirSlayer]

All I can say to the OP is sling box. One time hit for the equipment, watch your TV anywhere and the quality is damn good on 3g as well. Of course its way better one wifi, but you can rent movies from your cable provider or watch your pay channels no problem. Plus you get the bonus of watching whatever you want when ever you want. Don't need anything more then that here.

Because people don't want to get banned.
