Well I'd be surprised if it is really 'legal' as it lists brand new movies which aren't even released yet. I'm sure the documentaries & tv shows are fine though ;) Whatever the case, I'm loving it, lol!!:D

Hi to all, my first post here :)
Well it is somem months i have found tv-link, and i can tell you that it is very good, mostly for me about movies and documentaries.
One thing to say about, sometimes with chinese links it is a little hard to see moviesor other, because of the long time to buffer and low quality, but if you are lucky to have as host stage 6, well this is the best as quality, try to see transformer or the 300 there.
I can suggest also to visit www.stage6.com
You can find movie and a lot of documentaries, all in good quality
Cheers to all!

Hi Stefano & welcome to the forum :)
Yeah I've had a few where the buffering has taken ages or they pause quite a bit, but I just see it as a price to pay for access to that amount of stuff!! I just love that site, it's got some excellent links :D
Hope you enjoy it here...:)

TV Links shut down for linking
And if linking is illegal, how many of us are guilty?
October 20, 2007 1:42 PM
According to a report in The Guardian: "A 26-year-old man from Cheltenham was arrested on Thursday in connection with offences relating to the facilitation of copyright infringement on the internet, Fact said."
The arrest and the closure of the site - www.tv-links.co.uk - came during an operation by officers from Gloucestershire County Council trading standards in conjunction with investigators from Fact and Gloucestershire Police.
Fact claims that tv-links.co.uk was providing links to illegal film content that had been camcorder recorded from cinemas and then uploaded to the internet. The site also provided links to TV shows that were being illegally distributed.
It's a pity the Gloucestershire Police started with such small fry. There are a couple of multibillionaires called Larry Page and Sergey Brin -- the founders of Google -- who provide vast numbers of links to content that is being illegally distributed. Indeed, as everyone knows, they actually host plenty of illegal content on their own video site, YouTube, which has a UK operation.
Is the message that it's less criminal to host illegal content on YouTube than it is to to link to it from a site such as TV Links? Or is it just that FACT (Federation Against Copyright Theft) and the police won't tackle anybody with enough high-powered lawyers to fight back? Is The New Freedom blog correct in saying: "They just have so much money that they have become above the law."
Of course, there is a difference between building a site around links to content that could be presumed to lack copyright clearance and linking unintentionally from a site set up for a different purpose. However, I'm not a lawyer so I don't know how significant this is. (Is shoplifting OK if you have a proper job but criminal if you're unemployed and starving?)
It will be interesting to see who FACT picks on next. There are plenty of newspaper journalists who nowadays, as part of their proper jobs, link to YouTube videos and other internet content. It would be amazing if every single bit of material -- some of it "repurposed" -- had full and correct copyright clearance.
In future, do I risk being thrown in the slammer for linking directly to a YouTube video? What if I just say "go to Google and search for [YouTube xxx yyy]" or whatever? Oh dear, I forgot, Google's illegal so that will have to be closed down.
Perhaps I am already breaking the law by linking to Google, YouTube, TV Links, Pirate Bay and other sites that link to illegal content because this must also count as contributing to "the facilitation of copyright infringement on the internet" -- and, by the way, I expect you are breaking the law if you link to or even read this story.
Indeed, if linking is illegal, we might as well shut down the Internet, because there is no practical way anybody can guarantee the legality of what's on the end of any link. Even if you could guarantee it at the time of linking, there's no guarantee it would still be legal less than a second later, or for the rest of time.

Yeah it's a big shame, I'm almost having withdrawal symptoms here, lol! Interesting how they pick on the small fry & not the big Google/YT offenders eh!:rolleyes:
Does anyone know of a similar site with that amount of tv shows? I know there are other movie ones, but the tv / documentary bit was really good.
