By Lilian Downs

For a long time we have used the video store as one of our main ways to access movies. Instead of buying or renting the dvd, people now can choose a movie download instead. Below is a sample of some of the movies you can find using movie download sites.

Somehow this charmer has all three women falling head over heels for him. Kate Hudson, Frances O'Connor, and Stuart Townsend star. (2001 Comedy-Romance)

A phrase like "Movie Share" might get a good result. Try a new phrase if that one did not work. You should punch in "Videos Online" for another set of results.
