Folx fits the query perfectly. This small app combines the functionality of a torrent client and download manager. Torrent search is available right in the app, so you get all available sources brought to you directly. By splitting downloads in up to 20 streams, the app significantly accelerates the downloading process.
Fox Movie Download Torrent
The programming comes from studios, including Twentieth Century Fox, Paramount and Warner Brothers, that previously announced their intention to work with BitTorrent. There is also a new partner: the 83-year-old Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, which will take part by making 100 films available on the site from its 4,000-movie library.
The BitTorrent store will work slightly differently than rival digital media offerings like the iTunes Store of Apple and the Xbox Live service of Microsoft. BitTorrent will commingle free downloads of users' own video uploads with sales of professional fare. And while it will sell digital copies of shows like "24" and "Bones" for $1.99 an episode, it will only rent movies. Once the films are on the PC, they expire within 30 days of their purchase or 24 hours after the buyer begins to watch them.
New releases like "Superman Returns" cost $3.99, while classics like "Reservoir Dogs" cost $2.99. The studio's content plays in Microsoft's Windows Media Player 11. It is secured by Microsoft's antipiracy software, which blocks users from watching rented movies on more than one PC or sending them to others over the Internet.
While Rothman acknowledged that a leak of a potential summer blockbuster made for millions of dollars is a nightmare scenario, he thinks even those who download the movie illegally will see it in the theaters. He also, once again, emphasizes that the version online is an unfinished, unedited shorter film without many special effects shots and the footage shot in Canada earlier this year and thinks users won't be able to get the full experience on their computers.
That's true, and we hope for the sake of Fox's box-office revenues that the leak won't be too damaging. Still, the movie's already a hit on Bit Torrent. During its first few hours on the file-sharing service, Wolverine was downloaded at least 75,000 times, and Nikki Finke claims the number of downloads is in the hundreds of thousands.
[5] For instance, the difference between streaming video on top of torrents (Popcorn) is considered a copyright violation because it implies downloading. Streaming on its own is not (yet) considered an infringement since it only concerns temporary copies and these are excluded from copyright. A shift to concepts that fit in better with what actually is happening is needed, in many situations. 2ff7e9595c
