somehow i feel like the death of dvds is coming because we can almost do anything with the computer now except use it as cooking oil :) i like watching movies online since you can pause it and open another window to check for another thing or do something else without leaving your seat.

I watch movies online only when they are not out on dvd. Other then that I would prefer dvd's because I can watching them whenever I want. I can lay down on the couch and pop in the dvd and enjoy what I am watching.

What I like about watching films from DVDs would be that you don't have to be connected to the internet and if your screen display for your computer is not as impressive as a big screen television, you don't get to appreciate much unless your satisfied with your computer screen and having some friends or family members grouped together infront of the computer. If you don't have internet access or perhaps a fast connection, the film would often have to pause every now and then for the rest of the film to load up. If your sound system for your computer is also impressive, I guess one could simply replace their home audio system with it. Then again, you can borrow and lend DVDs with friends while you can simply search the net for the title that you want to watch. Most movies online have subtitles in them and mostly have them in english but, I know there are some viewers who would like to have no subtitles in their movie viewing. I think DVDs would still be around as CDs are still around. (^_^ )

I rather watch it on my TV. I have a big screen tv with surround sound so its like being at the movies except you can pause when you have to potty and you can lay out on the sofa. I do use the computer to watch some of my shows if I missed them and I think that is nice of them to have.

I do not usually watch movies online. I do not have much time to do it. I watch movies more on cable tv, as well as through my dvd player. But I do watch short videos online like in youtube.

I don;t know when was the last time I have bought a dvd since I have been able to watch movies online sometimes I can catch them even before they hit the movies. My fiance is really good with computers he hooks the computer to our flat screen tv in out bedroom and we watch movies from their.

I like to watch movies on DvD's because while watching online i have to wait for them to buffer. On Dvd's i don't have to wait just insert the disc and watch. If you know good sites to watch movies online please share.

i watch movies as they are. i like the online movies a little more because i can watch them before they are avaible in my area. but dvds are great and you can take them anywhere and you do not have to worry bout getting in any trouble if you puchased it. i have a great website to watch movies as they come out. and another to download them, if you have a membership.

I have a box made by Roku that allows me to watch movies from Amazon or Netflix instantly on my TV. I love it! No more trips to the video store for me.
