It's not that you're cheap it's that you simply cannot stand spending money on anything that isn't up to par. Something about it just rubs you the wrong way and you simply can't let it go. You have walked out of movies and concerts, sent back food at restaurants, even returned books half-read to the bookstore. You suspect a lot of your friends think you're a bit of a maniac but to you it's a matter of principle; when people are willing to buy anything, it's no surprise that standards keep slipping further and further each year. It's depressing.
When you find something of which you approve you purchase it without hesitation. In your apartment you have a single shelf of carefully chosen books, an extremely select DVD collection and, what is, in your opinion, an outstanding CD library.
You download a lot of music but you don't keep any of it. You listen to an album you've downloaded three or four times (if it warrants it - and most don't) and if you approve you buy the album before you trash the download otherwise you just trash it and move on. It has been over fifteen years since you returned a CD to a store; and that was a gift.
Movies though have often proven more troublesome. There are, of course, movies which you know you are going to love. You saw There Will Be Blood twice in the theatre, The Unforgiven three times; in both cases you now own the deluxe edition Blu-Ray DVDs. But when it comes to quality Hollywood movies, sure things are few and far between in your opinion.
## I appreciate movies, I really do. I simply think there's a lot of garbage out there passing for cinema these days and I do not wish to support that.
Well, that's fair enough. With the price of tickets as high as they are a lot of people have stopped taking chances on a night out at the movies until they are certain a film is going to be worth the price of admission. Nowadays you can enjoy movie trailers online, of course but even mediocre movies can occasionally have compelling trailers. If there are movies that you might want to see but do not want to chance in the movie theater why not view them at home? You can stream movies free of charge from a variety of sites these days.
## I rarely rent movies anymore. The discs are often in such poor shape and besides if it's actually a good movie I want to own it.
Rather than pay for a movie twice you can always watch them online the first time. Subsequently, if you enjoy them you can go out and obtain the DVD for all the extras and if you don't like them you don't even have to finish watching them.
## The thing is, I do not want my first exposure to a great film to be a grainy, poor quality online version.
Online movies have evolved quite a bit in the past few years. Nowadays when you stream movies free to your computer or laptop you can expect to get high quality video and audio. The online competition is steep and sites with poor quality content simply do not last long.
## What's the selection like though?
The selection of movies and TV shows available online today is vast. Current films, classic films, foreign films, documentaries, independent films, they are all available.
Whether you're looking for streaming tv shows, movie trailers, or full length feature films, there are sites out there to satisfy you. Google "stream movies for free" and start checking out the sites that come up. If you're not satisfied with the quality or selection of a site simply move on to the next one. Who knows, you might just find some films that you missed in the theatre that you're going to want for your Blu-Ray collection.
