It isn't that you're cheap it is that you merely can't bear paying for something that isn't up to your standards. There is something about it that simply rubs you the wrong way and you simply cannot let it go. You've walked out of movies and concerts, sent back food at restaurants, even returned half-read books to bookstores. You suspect a lot of your friends think that you are a bit of a lunatic but to you it's a matter of principle; when people are prepared to buy anything, it is no surprise that standards keep slipping further and further each and every year. It's profoundly depressing.
Now, whenever you find something of which you approve you enthusiastically buy it. In your apartment you have one small shelf of carefully chosen books, an extremely select collection of DVDs and, what is, in your opinion, an outstanding CD library.
You download a lot of music from the internet but unlike most people you do not keep any of it. You listen to an album you've downloaded 3 or 4 times (assuming 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's been more than twelve years since you last returned a CD to a store; and that was a gift.
Movies though have always been trickier. Some movies you know you're going to love. You saw Inception twice in the theatre, No Country For Old Men three times; in both cases you now own the deluxe edition Blu-Ray DVDs. But when it comes to decent Hollywood movies, sure things are few and far between in your opinion.
## I love movies, I really do. I just think there is a lot of garbage out there passing for cinema these days and I don't want to support that.
Well, that's fair enough. With ticket prices the way they are a lot of movie-goers have stopped taking chances on a night out at the movies unless they are absolutely sure a film is likely to be worth the price of admission. Nowadays you can watch movie trailers online, of course but it's no secret that even mediocre movies can occasionally have compelling trailers. If there are movies that you might want to see but don't want to chance in the movie theater why not enjoy them at home? You can stream movies free of charge from any number of websites these days.
## I seldom rent movies anymore. The discs are often terrible condition and besides if it's actually a good movie I want to own it.
Rather than pay for a movie twice you can instead watch them online initially. If you like them you can go out and buy the DVD for all the extras and if you do not like them you do not even have to finish watching them.
## The problem is, I do not want my very first exposure to a great film to be a grainy, poor quality internet version.
Online movies have come a long way in the past couple of years. These days when you stream movies free to your computer or laptop you can expect to get high quality video and audio. The competition online is steep and sites with poor content don't last long.
## What's the selection like though?
The selection of films and Television shows available online is vast these days. Current films, foreign films, classic films, documentaries, independent films, they're all available.
Whether you are searching for streaming TV shows, movie trailers, or full length feature films, there are web sites out there to satisfy you. Google "stream movies for free" and start looking into the sites that come up. If you are ever not satisfied with the quality or selection of a website simply move on to the next site. Who knows, you might just find some motion pictures that you missed in the theatre that you are going to want for your Blu-Ray collection.
