Many users are constantly looking for resources or programs with which they can download multimedia content to their computer. Today we will talk about how to download a movie to a computer from the Internet for free.
Downloading via torrents
The most classic and common option for downloading movies, music and games from the Internet are torrent trackers. On special sites, there are thousands of positions on a variety of topics that can be downloaded absolutely free. All thematic categories are respected when distributing content. Therefore, you can search for movies by genre and type (new movies, series, old movies, etc.). However, to download, you need to install an additional program - uTorrent. Through it, torrent files are opened, after which the user can select a folder to download, control the process, and so on.
After installing the program, you need to open one of the sites that publish torrents with movies. For example, one of the major Russian portals called Rutracker. On it you will find thousands of movies, games, music albums and programs. Follow the link and open the desired category. If you already know which movie you want to download, then enter its name in the search bar.
