MP4 Movie Downloads - Where to Find It

As an avid movie fan, you know how cool it would be to watch your favorite movies wherever you go. Today, most portable multimedia devices are now able to play full length movies thanks to the latest in data storage technology. With portable multimedia devices reaching hundreds of gigabytes of memory space, you will be able to store several full length movies on your MP4 Player.

With portable multimedia devices, such as the iPod, Zune player, and PSP, you will be able to watch your favorite movies even while you are on the go. This means that if you are in a bus from LA to Las Vegas, you will be able to keep yourself entertained as you wait for the bus to reach its destination.

However, before you start moving the movies stored on your computer to your portable multimedia devices, you need to know that most portable multimedia devices today dont support just any kind of video format. Usually, popular portable multimedia devices today, such as the iPod, Zune player, and PSP, only support MP4 videos. What this means is that the AVI, and MPEG-1 and 2 format movies stored on your computer will not be playable on your portable multimedia device.

The next best thing that you can do is download MP4 movies from the internet. With today's high speed internet connection, you will be able to get MP4 movies in no time at all. However, you need to know where to find MP4 movies first before you can download it, right?

Well, there are basically tons of websites that offer MP4 movie downloads. However, it is important that you should only download from legitimate ones and avoid illegal download websites.

Although illegal download websites can offer you free MP4 movie downloads, you will see that these download sites are often not reliable. You need to remember that illegal MP4 movie download websites are a haven for computer viruses and spyware software. It is important to remember that websites like this are usually P2P websites where people share files. Although you may find MP4 downloads that is what it says it is, you will see that most files available here are not that reliable. The file may be named to be one particular movie you want to download, but once you open it, it will be something else.

And, most files here are infected with viruses that once you open it, the virus will instantly be activated and wreak havoc on your computer.

Not only that, if you get caught downloading from illegal MP4 movie download websites, you will be subjected to large fines and in worse cases, you may even face getting incarcerated.

So, if you dont want to put your computer at risk of getting infected with computer viruses and spyware software, or if you dont want to serve time behind bars, you should always download from legal or legitimate websites. Although you may need to pay a fee for the download you make, you will see that the download will be fast, reliable, legal, and malicious software free.

These are the things that you need to remember about MP4 movie download websites. Although there are tons of websites out there that offers this type of service, you need to make sure that you only choose the legal ones where you download your MP4 movies.

Distance Restrictions In Rural Applications - DSL vs T1

Here's a question often asked by those in rural areas needing dedicated bandwidth for their network applications.

"If someone wanted to have a T-1 line (or fractional T-1) installed in a very rural location, are they subject to the same distance restrictions as a DSL line is?"

The general answer is no. T1's do not have maximum distance "limitation" as does DSL. Network carriers can use multiple T1 repeaters to regenerate (not just amplify) the T1 signal.

However, 2 distance "sensitive" components can increase T1 cost.

First, the T1 access loop. Most local exchange carriers (LECs) (e.g., AT&T/SBC/BellSouth, Qwest and Verizon) charge the ISP for T1 access based on distance between the ISP's router (Internet POP) and the customer's local serving exchange (LEC Central Office.) That is why most ISP's T1 quote tools require the customers local phone number, or at least the 1st 6-digits (NPA-NXX) which identify the local CO exchange, in order to caculate the distance to the ISP's closest IP POP (Internet router).

Second, extrordinary construction costs. If the customer location is a great distance from the closest T1-equipped LEC central office, then the LEC must install additional T1 repeaters and possibly incur other transmission equipment / construction costs to reach the customer. In this case, the LEC has 2 options to deal with construction cost: either absorb cost themselves, or pass it on to the ISP who then pass it on to the end-user customer. I've been implementing T1s for awhile and have seen this situation a few times. Twice the one-time construction costs were $10-$20K and the customer canceled the order. Once, BellSouth had to trench ~200 feet to lay new cable and they absorbed this cost.

Assuming no extrordinary construction cost, there are ISPs that offer flat rate Internet T1s for $750 per month, anywhere in US, with no distance limitations between ISP POP and customer's serving CO. The flat rate cost includes T1 access loop and 1.5 Mbps Internet port. In the majority of cases these aren't always the most reliable providers when you consider long term stability, QoS, and SLA though.

However, for most locatons that are under 25 miles to the ISP POP, we are seeing Internet T1 prices in the general range of $300-$500 per month +/-.

The upside is that it's full speed in both directions, and not subject to the EULA restrictions that DSL lines are. Typically, ISP's don't want you running services behind a DSL line, no such problem with the T1.
