The majority of online free movies downloaded are illegal due to a breach of copyright. However, you can download legal movies online if you do not use P2P sites and take notice of recent US and UK government actions against bootleg movie sites. Not only are file sharing domains being seized and shut down, but search engines are looking closely at their listing positions – which may be very transitory indeed!

This is not right, because it is not illegal to use this type of software, in the same way as it is not illegal to drive cars if you do so within the law. The difference is that with cars the drivers are prosecuted (i.e. the users) but note those that sell or hire them, and the cars are not banned.

P2P File Sharing is not Illegal

With online free movie sites offering downloading software, you can use them either legally or illegally (just like cars – or guns!). In this case it is the site owner that is prosecuted, not the user, and the site is taken offline. Where is the consistency in that? File sharing is not illegal, yet any domain offering it for legal use is prosecuted and the site taken offline.

That’s the situation, and it has to be stated. However if you want online free movies, and to download legal movies online, then there is a way to do that that does not involve file sharing or P2P software. There are membership sites available online that offer member’s unlimited access to movies for a one-off lifetime membership fee.

Just like file sharing, this is completely legal to use once you have become a member. However, it does not offer you the choice to illegally download copyright-protected movies. It does offer you free access to almost unlimited movies, all free to members. Whether they were released last week or 20 years ago, you will be able to watch them free.

Online Free Movies From Legal Movie Databases

How do these sites work? Easy! They are not P2P and are 100% legal. Once you have registered and your payment has been processed, you can access the vast movie databases that such sites can offer, the vast majority of which have already been approved for release to the members of the service. Downloads tend to be rapid and you need no experience in using computers. No time limits or bandwidth restrictions and you can watch movies on your laptop, PC, on your works PC or on any other device that has internet access.

Another way of downloading unlimited movies free of charge was to use a file sharing network, where members would share the contents of their hard drives. As long as they were logged on, you could copy any movies, music or games stored on a specific directory chosen by the other P2P member.

Legal Movie Download Sites

If these files you copied or downloaded were copyright protected then you and the owner of the site holding the movies would be acting illegally. Rather than you worry about any legal consequences from breaking copyright law, it is surely better that you have a clear mind and download your online free movies from a legal site than a bootleg site. Many prosecutions arise several weeks after the event.

If you want to download online free movies you could fall foul of the law by using P2P services. If you simply need to know how to download movies free of charge, you can download legal movies online using the services available on the internet if you are really interested in looking for them.

More details on how to download legal movies online are available on Pete’s website. It is important that when downloading online free movies, you do not use P2P file sharing software, but do so from a website that specifically offers legal downloads,
