How to Download Movie Trailers

Movie trailers used to be limited to the theaters themselves: you saw them before the main feature started, and that was usually the only place you could access them. The advent of the Internet has changed that. Today, you can download movie trailers from a number of different sites, all of which utilize the same basic procedure for doing so. Once the trailer is on your hard drive, you can watch it as often as you want.

      Determine the size you want your trailer to be. Most trailer sites offer high-res, medium-res and low-res copies. High-res downloads tend to use more space on your hard drive. If you want to download a lot of trailers, consider using a lower resolution.
