Downloading Movies

Once upon time, deciding to rent a movie meant that you were too lazy to go out. Now, you can exert even less effort by avoiding the trip to the video store, too. When you feel like watching a film, simply walk over to your computer and buy or rent it. But make sure you understand what constitutes illegal downloading: violating Digital Rights Management laws can cost you more than late fees.

Illegal downloading of movies has yet to be in the spotlight in the same way that music downloading has been, but it’s still a major element of the Digital Rights Management (DRM) saga (and the subject of a few stern commercials at your local movie theater). Understand the issues at hand so you can evaluate the legality of your own behavior.
