(General) downloading movies

I don't download movies. That's not a judgement of your download habits however. I find most movie releases these days banal and not worth seeing on the big screen. If it's that interesting to me, I'll wait for the DVD and usually Netflix it. I'm just not in that big a hurry to see the schlok that Hollywood puts out these days, or download some worthless crap some punk capped off the big screen.

Uh, if I read your question correctly, my answer is no, I do not download CAMs.

No i do not download CAM versions of the movies.

I agree there are some old movies you can't rent from Netflix.

reply to Oleg
Nope don't bother with cam movies never did. I used to download AVI dvd rips and ISOs sometimes but now just download the dvd ISO with newsgroups.

reply to Oleg
NoPE! don't blow ratio on CAMs. just wait and if its good enough a screener/TS or dvd rip will come out.

reply to Oleg
Nope to me you have to be really desperate to want a cam version. I hate the cams that come out that have no compression and they try to pass them off as retail. I usually get my movies that are ripped 1-2 months before their release, anything before that you know its a cam.

reply to Oleg
Got to love those recode cams
On another hand TS versions are OK if they are done right.

reply to Oleg
I had a hard time understanding your post, was that a question or a comment? Punctuation really helps to get your message understood.

Anyway. Intelligent search queries backed with a little homework, will yield excellent results. Hundreds and hundreds of excellent quality .avi's are out there. Most times, the word "CAM" is incorporated into the filename anyway. Comparing your file to the Bitzi website will tell you exactly what you have... a poor cam job, misleading/bogus filename, or an excellent rip. Bitzi is a must have tool. And PeerGuardian2 is indispensable.
Downloading without PeerGuardian is as smart as having intimate relations with a $20 hooker scarred with needle marks, and going bareback. Or jumping from the top of the Sears tower using your Totes umbrella to control your descent.

That's no excuse.

Ignore it I do. A grammar Nazis can not be reasoned with. They have so much free time they worry about how a person types on-line they'll never know or ever meet.

HAIL GRAMMAR!!

God next thing you know someone will say forums are to be fun and you use them to relax. Internet forums are serious damn it and I'm here to prove I'm smarter then others cause I can type well.

I did not know I exhibited such evolved behavior (sorry, behaviour) by engaging in these advanced practices! LOL...

FWIW, I tend to grab them only after they have been well seeded. That way, I can turn my computer off sooner, and at the same time, help save the planet.
