AOL Video has decided to spread some holiday cheer by giving away over 30 free movie downloads for one day only on Saturday.

Several of the titles are, appropriately, Christmas movies such as National Lampoon?s Christmas Vacation and Jack Frost, but there will be some non-spirited ones available such as Spiderman 2 as well. The free offering begins at 6:00 a.m. Eastern Time and customers are limited to one movie per person, but not one per computer.

Normally, movie downloads from AOL Video are priced from $9.99 to $19.99 per title. We reviewed AOL Video in October and found it to be lacking in selection and high in price compared to the other movie downloading services. But on Saturday, we would argue that it will be one of the better ones. After all, who can argue with free?

Guess where I work? But I stole it from TechCrunch

*bump for Saturday*

Which one of these is good?
Nacho Libre
Mission Impossible 3
The Perfect Storm

Are any of those better than watching Flatliners for the 3rd time?
(Flatliners is one that's offered, but I've seen it a couple times -- and liked it)

1.4kb download speed up to a massive 10kb/sec - at that rate it will be being shown on TV by the time it finishes. (comcast cable connection not dialup being used).

Nice if you have a day to waste though and free is always good, just not worth it for me b/c of the poor download speed.

Thanks OP and the response gives it another bump ;)

Yeah... pathetic.

It will work fine with any of them, you just have to make the website believe your using IE6. Opera has this built in, somewhere in the menus. In Firefox, go to about:config and change the browser identd and with IE7, just google for the registry keys to change so that it thinks IE7 is IE6
