I was wondering if anyone knows a decent legal web site to download videos. Preferably out of copyright old television or comedy shows.

I am looking for something that carries the “plays for sure” tag so it will be compatible with Creative Labs Zen Vision M player that I have.

Personally I could care less about the video capabilities of this player as I bought it for it’s music capabilities and I don’t watch much television, but my bride takes it with her a couple of times a week on her commute to the city via train. She says the trip goes much faster using it.

I did purchase a couple of Comedy Central Stand up videos from Wal-Mart.com and they worked well but the choices are limited.

Low cost is good, but free is better Wink

Thanks,

It's a limited selection, but there are some interesting choices.

Do they have to be downloaded? Archive.org also has a variety of films. Reliable, but you can't download them.

Try www.imvite.com Koz? It has Lots of Video to eplore (no sign up and there is No Download )Quite a Few Live channels and Also Whole episodes clips to view in Broadcast Quality Video /Sound Cool

Runs Mainly on Windows media Play and Realplayer

Content changes often (to avoid copy write issues)

Here are some rough numbers To see if Koz's computer can cope with the Downloads?such as RAM,Connectionspeeds I Think It'll Have to be a 2MB Broadband connection Minimum and 1GB Ram

As for Sites Try keywords "Video on Demand"
There are several Uk TV companies Producing Archive Material BUT...Its Blocked outside the UK Mad

Did find this though
www.bbcamerica.com/content/116/ondemand.jsp

Majority of "VOD" sites are free but you have to register OK?

Thanks DG, that link has some interesting titles. My wife loves older movies so I think I can help her pass the time with a few of those.

I don’t know how she feels about old horror flicks, but I’ll find out Wink . I think I will start with “ Werewolf In The Girls Dormitory Eek ”.



Thanks folks, I have to read up and learn about this new fangled gadget.

Always something New every few week that we have totake on board and Adapt to

Baffles Me too Mad

Next few weeks I'm setting up a Network with a Router
I've read through the Instructions several times and Yet I think it'll be trial & error to get it working (may be offline?) was offline for 2 days when I upgraded to Broadband with Connection issues.(wiring & filters)
And yes going Wireless and setting Up a Network of 2 slaves is going to be Fun NOT!
