Angry Movie Or Trailer

Is there a way you can tell if your downloading a movie or a trailer.I spent a couple hrs downloading what I thought were movies and they were trailers.They had 5 stars beside them so I thought they were legiminate.Would appreciate any help and thank you ! Like to think my 35.00 was spent on something worthwhile.

It depends on the file format, you can download full movies in .avi format that have less than 600Mb. Trailer rarely have more than 100Mb so that the users can download it within a few minutes.

The new mpeg formats are getting better all the time. I mean mpeg 4 is superior to mpeg 1 (vcd) & there's even mpeg 13 & 21 in the pipeline (hope I got the no.'s correct.) Mpeg 4 such as DivX can potentially reduce the size of a movie less than that of mpg 1/2 with the equivalent loss of quality so to speak.

Angry Real Or Adversement

Still is there anyway to find out if you got the real movie or someone just faking it or putting adevertisement.I been on here a week and got only one movie and that turbo speed is a waste maybe the whole thing is.I spent 35.00 for what.Could have spent that on kazza platnium.

Just use one of the MANY free version.

Or do you think you pay also for the music/movies?

You should try the donkey network:

http://www.edonkey.com/downloads.php

There is no need to buy the PRO version, use the basic one. the donkey network is the best for videos and games. You have fake lists and some sides other links to good quality material.
