    Default Best access to movies

    Hey i may be in the wrong spot but move it if the need be.

    i want to be able to download a few movies and am unsure of the formats to use. I use torrents at the moment but wondered if there is a way to download them as a compressed format that uses less of my ISP allocated bandwidth.

    Thanks

    zipped or rared in torrents, all about 700mb ( divx and such doesn't compress as it is already.)
    You can probably get ones in less resolution but then they are crap on a plasma or lcd.
    What happens if I press alt + F4?

    Try rmvb , they seem to be ok and cut your downloads down to a minimum , grab a rapidshare account and toddle off to softarchive.

    Cheers

    Hi,

    As rob916 said.

    You can then convert them back to DVD if your player requires the DVD format
