Answer» This is not contrary to forum Rules. (I Think.) This is a discussion about movies and television and the Internet and copyright and if things are free and if you have to pay for things and if you're breaking the law. So the topic is, Can you WATCH movies free online? Simple simple and direct answer is: No! But that is not the really correct answer. In the first place, your connection to the Internet is paid by somebody. Whenever you watch some kind of video presentation on the Internet, there is always some kind of advertising or promotion connected to it and that's what pays for. However, this question usually is GIVEN to mean that you can watch a movie without having to go to your local video store or to a THEATER and lay down some money out of your wallet. Yes, you can watch a movie on your home computer without paying directly out of her wallet. But does it VIOLATE the copyright law? Possibly. Would you be thrown into jail? Not likely. But that has happened. A LITTLE bit of investigation shows that lots of people are watching movies now over the Internet and apparently it is allowed for some reason. Below is a link to a wiki that someone put up to explain it in real simple terms that anybody can understand. Most of the sites that offer movies have some kind of disclaimer or some kind of terms of service that you have to read and that will make it clear as to if you are violating the law or not. If they say they are not violating the law, and if you believe what they say is true, then you have a reasonable defense in case someone accuses you of doing something unlawful. Here is the link I mentioned. Of course, there are lots more likely use. This is one I picked out because it was easy-to-understand. Please read it and you tell me what you think.
