The only places where you could download it for free would be illegal sites. Movies are generally not available for free, especially big Hollywood movies.

Hello,

Yes, Tdol is right : it's illegal.

Even if you bought an LP in the 70s which has since become a collector's item and there is no CD available, it's against the law to download it from P2P networks.

Not to mention entire films.

Some people do, though...

I lost a rare record which has been deleted and is not available on CD, which is very frustrating.

Had to read the book last year for school, and then we watched the movie. I'd skip the movie; it's boring and the book is much better.

I agree that the book's much better- I read it over twenty years ago and can still remember the pleasure of reading some of the passages.
