Do you folks have objections to downloading movies/music/TV shows for your entertainment as opposed to buying/renting ?
There is no question a good deal of money can be saved but there are a few lingering questions
1. Is it ethical in your opinion or even legal in your neck o' the woods ?
2. Does it save that much money ? We certainly need to factor in the cost of high-speed Internet (as opposed to Internet Lite for example) and the extra cost if you exceed certain download threshold.
I do download music but I typically buy movies from Blockbuster/Rogers via their Previously Viewed programs where I can get 2 movies for $20. I like to build up a small collection for the occasional movie nights with friends and families...I understand we can now download 720p and 1080p so I will look into that before I make the jump to Blu-ray...I find it hard to shell out $20 for a Blu-ray disc.
What's your take on this ?
