this program doesnt exist even for pc
if you want to download some movies or some anything, justo google for it and download from any file server such megaupload, duckload, etc.

help i need to download warez apps and movies need answer right now

This is the biggest issue with android in general for me. There is no official movie/TV download service. Blockbuster has an app on some devices but not a lot. Streaming movies and TV is worthless for plane rides or those of us with wifi only tablets..
Are there any legal ways besides ripping dvds anyone uses that aren't streaming services?

it was announced as officially going to be released to a few devices at some point. there wasn't anything stated as to when it would be released.
aww.. well is there any kind of work-around?

There's no HULU app... yet theres a work-around that lets you watch hulu.
It's a question, not a demand asking someone to make a work-around, and also there was a beta going around a few months ago, but a VERY buggy beta. I'm unable to find it.
Nevermind, imageshack sucks.
i tried the ustream work around but the ustream app is ****. now i just use my ipod touch and hotspot my vibrant to it. works great. now what i'm looking for is a throttle fix.
There is no workaround for Netflix on Android. Hulu was relatively easy since 2.2 & higher have adobe flash built-in and Hulu (like the majority of video streaming sites) is flash based. The Android flash player was basically hex edited to fool Hulu into thinking it was a PC and not Android by modifying a text string.

Netflix on the other hand uses Silverlight platform (Microsoft's answer to Adobe Flash) which doesn't currently exist for Android. Until Netflix finally releases an app or we get Silverlight on Android there is no way to watch Netflix.
Yeah there is a workaround. Download PlayOn from the Market.

That IS bull.
I was watching Star Trek from Netflix on my Vibrant tonight using playon, without a hitch.
Give me a link, and I'll tell them what's up.
I wasn't watching trek but I was using netflix through play on. Only problem is you need to be connected to the play on server on computer....still limited though. Netflix isn't on any android devices...not until they figure a proper drm format..no DRM is the only reason it wasn't released when iphone got it.

Once you do the initial WIFI pairing it will continue to work on 3G and other places VIA WIFI. The app syncs to the playon server to get your IP address, if your IP address changes(the one given to you by you ISP) you'll need to re-sync. but I use it out and about all the time on 3G and other peoples WIFI without a problem, just a little slow on the initial startup, but hey it is a beta app.

So I have to stream content from my PC...
WTF is the point?
I'll just watch it on my PC's big screen instead...this really is stupid..If I'm at home why would I watch ANYTHING on my phone's little screen when I can just watch it on my PC or laptop?
I watch sports highlights, Family Guy (Fox.com) etc. on my phone when I'm on the road on 3G..but if I'm home I'm not gonna use my phone when my PC offers a wayyyy better viewing experience.
Playon is a waste of time and money. It would be excellent if it offered Hulu/Netflix WITHOUT having to stream from a PC.

Not if they enable our tv-out feature. We could stream it directly from the phone through the AUX port.
Also, I'm sure there's a way to stream your phones screen to the computer through the use of an application on the phone and on the pc. Could be wrong, but it seems remotely likely..

You can rent from other places online for your PC like Amazon.
Yeah, I'm not sure why would want to do that... the Android movies are $1 more expensive on average, and probably would be lower quality. Go on Amazon or something.

not trying to be rude , but I dont remember asking you to save me money lol.
I do however think that it should be possible to stream the movie from my phone to a pc.
I think would be kind of nifty you rent a movie on your phone , you watch it , go over a friends house and say hey I got a movie want to watch it?, and be able to stream it to their pc or something.

I understand the premise but I think that is what Google is trying to prevent because once on a PC it can be recorded easily. There are too many apps for computers to do this. This is also supposedly why the root block is there (not much of a lock though).
All's Google needs is a lawsuit from a movie company stating they are the reason it was bootlegged (too many lawyers in this world).
I'm sure at some point you will be able to access the rented google movie from your google account on your pc. And I am betting you will be able to with a google enabled tv as well. I'm not sure if it works that way now but it might in the future.

Not rooting because of Google Movies

It's been rumored that rooted devices will not have access to rent/buy movies using Google's new Movie service.
Am I the only one holding back on rooting my device because of this? I tried thinking about it yesterday, and I do not know of any legitimate way to download a movie (legally - paid) and transfer to watch on my Tab. More to the point, I'd rather just rent at $5 than buy at $15.
I've been a rooter since I had a G1 and was always a proponent of rooting, but I don't want to lose what I feel is a key feature of a tablet -- the ability to watch movies.
I know that's not the case as of now .. I have the new market on my Fascinate .. rooted and can download movies and books like a champ. Maybe its something they will fix later . But isn't the case as of now .

My 10.1 is not rooted, and the Google Video app doesn't show up in the market. When I go to the web I can find the app, but my Samsung shows up grayed out and the market claims the device is not compatible with the Video App. I've got it on my Asus Transformer and Acer Iconia tablet though. All three live in the U.S. with me. Anyone have a clue? Maybe a direct download of the video app?
I can confirm that movie playback is indeed prohibited when SU is discovered. I can also confirm that the work around listed previously, er, works.
iTunes it isn't, but it is a legit way of getting media on an Android device. Much better than Samsung's implementation.
I'm one of those odd people who will hack their device on a whim, but won't download illegal media. If I'm going to watch something, I'll rent or buy it.

Not a big deal for me. Have an SD card+Conector so I can stock up on movies before going anywhere.
My Tab is rooted and running Task's ROM and I rented a movie with no problems. It played on my Tab without mentioning root. When I tried to watch on my rooted Galaxy S2, it said it couldn't play on rooted device. But I found a modified Videos app that worked.

I agree. I buy or rent movies, rip and convert them and put them on my GTab to watch at my convenience.

Amazon.com Prime member? You might be interested to know....

That not only do they offer a netflix-like stream service with lots of free movies and TV shows, you can watch them on your tab with no issues.
-Login into Amazon via the stock web browser (desktop UA)
-look for Amazon prime instant video somewhere in the top left.
-pick a movie or show
-watch in browser (click on the expand button for full screen)

Agreed. I knew about it for a while, but then noticed that the prime section is severely limited. I also have netflix, so I have no need for the prime streaming.
However, it is nice that Amazon is extending some more services to its prime members.
I just found out about this morning, never really noticed it before. I just found it interesting that it was so easy to play on the tab.

You have to download whatever stuff you want to read/watch/listen to. It has maybe one sample of a manual book (can't remember), but that's pretty much it.
Books you have download and movies are streamed from the nextflix app or if you're a prime member from there videos app built into the UI. Music is also streamed and I do believe you have the option to download music from the cloud onto the internal memory.
