Tips for Downloading Movies and Games for Your PSP

So you own a PSP? Lucky you, but I bet you’ve wished you could download an unlimited number movies and games for it. Now you can. Actually, there are several sites that you can do this with. Sure I could list these sites and tell you which one I would use, but instead I will give you some tips on what to look for in these sites and let you make that decision. If you really want to know which site I recommend, click on the link below. On to the tips:

1. First and foremost, what kind of download limit is there? You don’t want to be downloading something and find out you have exceeded your limit and will have to wait until next month to finish it. Only go for sites with unlimited download access.
2. What kind of customer service is offered? If they do not offer customer service, more than likely you are going to want to stay away.
3. Can you preview at least some of the content you can download? If not, how can you be sure what you are getting?
4. What else do they offer? Most quality sites will offer not only games and movies for your PSP, but also other things such as TV episodes and music. This way you get more ‘bang’ for your buck. Even if your really only interested in getting games, at least you know you could get that episode of CSI that you missed the other night.
5. You get what you pay for. If it’s free, it probably doesn’t work or is extremely complicated and inconvenient to use.
6. What are the payment terms? Is it month to month or a 1 time fee? Personally I prefer the 1 time fee. That way I don’t have to worry about it since it’s paid for and usually the 1 time fee is under $50 anyhow (and if it isn’t you should avoid them anyway).

Obviously there are other things you are probably going to want to look out for, but these are the main ones. Now you should be able to find yourself a good source of content for your PSP and if you’re still not sure, check out my site for the one I recommend.

Privacy When Downloading Movies, Games & Music Online

My previous article gave tips on how to get the best out of your P2P downloading software. This article looks at the safety and privacy issues you need to be aware of. (Note: if you require P2P download software head on over to reviewblaster.com where we review the best available).

Controlling your P2P shared folder

Uploading files across the P2P networks involves you uploading files from other people’s shared folders (just as they can upload files from yours). You therefore need to make sure you have control over your own shared folder and only add files that you want to share. Make sure you move files in and out of the folder appropriately and remember other users can only access your shared folder and not any other files on your computer. You can opt not to share yours by disabling the file-sharing option and this is recommended if you do not want people to share files from your computer.

Controlling your privacy

Remember, other users of P2P networks can view and download the contents of your shared folder so you should ensure that you only upload files to it that you are willing and able to share. If you are not sharing a file no-one else will have access to it.

Choose the right software

When choosing P2P software ensure it has a full money back policy and a good customer support service in case of any issues or problems.

Always run a virus check before downloading

As with any file you download from the internet you should run a virus check on any file downloaded across a P2P network. Pay particular attention to executable or zipped files (right click on your downloaded file and choose to perform a virus scan on it before you open it.) If you don’t have a good virus scanner, get one!

Beware of unsuitable content

Just as everywhere else on the internet ,there is a great deal of unsuitable content freely available over P2P networks if you look for it. You need to ensure the correct controls are in place, particularly if children have access to your computer. Most good P2P download sites come with parental controls anyway but the best control as ever is personal supervision. Always ensure that you are aware what your children are downloading and educate them to the dangers.

Conclusion

Your security and privacy are very important so please follow the advice above when downloading over P2P networks. My next article goes into more detail about protection from viruses, spyware and adware.
