Film Download

Postby Footprint » Mon Oct 08, 2012 7:14 am

Buenas dias

I have recently joined 'Filmous' on recommendation from a friend. He uses an applemac and when showing me how to download he picked an option 'downthemall' or some such name.

I am using a Dell - Windows 7 - and when I click 'download' I do not get the same options. I will have to go through it more carefully to ensure I am completing the right steps. My question is - which download software do you use?

Many thanks in anticipation............

Hi Enrique

That's great - thank you. Have that open now so will download and use that.

See no point in paying for software if the free stuff works well. Not going to use it that often but wanted to download some things to watch on the ferry - keep my mind off being on a boat! :thumbdown:

Does FILMOUS charge individually for each film download and what are the costs? I see that the web site is registered to an office in Limassol but linked to perhaps server in Russia. Are the films legally authentic ones and not Torrent type ones?

Does anyone in Spain do it legally?

Films are 1.50USD. You just add funds to your account - minimum is 29.99USD and they give you a bonus amount on top of that.

Just testing the Quote tool as it does not appear to be working for the above. And yes - anything goes in Spain, as everybody knows, until the authorities wake up and then mete out retribution usually retroactively and drastically.
