    why would you want the whole movie? Just get a divx or xvid rip. Use verified sites...
    Make your files the smallest possible to share. If you don't you how I recomend DR. DivX. It will do it for you. We don't want to have to dl that 2.5 gig sh*t for a movie or 2 SVCD's. SMALLEST FORMAT ALWAYS!!!!!!

    ive never used DC myself, so i couldnt help you there, but bittorrent has some good sources - suprnova etc.

    and of course he wants a dvd-r, think of the quality

    seriously though, you can either spend a day dling the full dvd with all features and extras, in nice wide-screen, or you can dl a crappy divX and spend a day encoding it right and burning...i know which id prefer to do

    Totally agree with this.

    Divx is most of the times a far better quality as svcd or ripped dvd image.
    Normal dvd is probably compressed fro >8 gig to fit on a 4,5 gig the compression does a lot worse then a rip to divx avi.
    With a divx player you can burn like 4-5 divxmovies onto 1 dvd&#33;

    i would agree that this is fairly true, however the problem that I (and i suspect many others) have is that i get a film for me, then a friend wants to watch it: i aint gonna sit and convert the movie for them, so i just dl the dvd-r.

    now the best bet is to check out a torrent forum, like digital update where the people tell you exactly how it was ripped:

    e.g. "dvd-shrink menus deleted, 96% of the original movie"

    then you know whether or not its worth it.

    generally anything which isnt an action/really long film (lotr, matrix) is amazing Q like this, and beats anything up to around a 1.4GB Xvid.
