Technology has moved quickly, what used to take special media storage and special media machines has now changed, and movie downloads are now available for your family movie night at home.

The original family movie night started with a machine called a VCR or a Beta player, you could purchase movies, rent them, and even create your own library. In fact, movie rental stores were popping up all over. Watching movies on TV caused almost as much time in commercials as the movie time itself, and this too has changed. These movies allowed you to have your popcorn, your pop, and allowed a large family to enjoy a night's entertainment in their own home watching one of the newest releases without theater fees.

The bonus of being able to stop the play of the movies for a family bathroom break or the phone made it a very convenient entertainment mode. And of course, if you bought the movie, it was re-playable on demand.

The unfortunate part about home movies and home movie systems was not just storing all those movies but also, the media systems changed so fast that you soon had to purchase the newest media player in order to enjoy the latest in movies. Once again, this has all changed.

Today's technology is the fastest way to see the newest movies, you can download movies from the Internet quickly and easily using your home computer. Not only can you get the latest releases, but the downloaded movies from the Internet are a lot easier to store than the older VHS or disks

You'll also be able to find your favorite old movies available such as classic movie downloads and others. And of course, this media system isn't going to change. Your storage of movies may change a bit as external drives are now available that hold over 5G's of data giving you the opportunity to store several movie downloads on something not much bigger than a lighter.

The home computer is now the latest media system, downloads are quicker, media storage and retrieval is quicker, and the best part, you don't have to buy separate machine.

There are many ways to purchase or rent movie downloads. Explore the many different opportunities available on your Internet and find full versions of your favorite movies that are easily downloaded and stored.

So as you can see, while technology has changed your movie nights at home have not. You can still enjoy a very inexpensive night for the whole family with the newest releases using your Internet as your media source. This means you'll never have to return a late movie and pay late fees, never have to rush to the video store, and will not have a wall full of your favorite movies at home.
