MACCA350 Audioholic Chief Apr 11, 2005 829 0 0 Australia Apr 26, 2005 #4 They are free downloads because the p2p networks are free networks. A p2p network is you connecting to others like yourself to exchange files, so you dont pay royalties to anyone, you only pay for your connection to the net to allow you to connect to others. Pay royalties to who? certainly not the people who produced the movie. There is no such thing as a legal download of movies in cinemas, not yet anyway. So they are ripping you off, as all they do is show you websites to the free Software Clients that allow you to connect to other people and download of them. Search the net and you can find them yourself cheers
