Thanks OP.
I like this site, but hate their 24 hour viewing policy. I want to preview a movie, and then watch it some time later in the week. But, with free movie links - No complaints.

Once you start the movie it can only be viewed for the next 24 hours. I think you can download it and keep it for a longer time if you dont want to watch it right away, but once the movie is played it will expire 24 hours later.

You can keep it for up to one month before playing the movie. Once you play it, you have 24 hours to watch it.

FYI. The site uses the combination of IP address and email address to determine the unique user. So if you wanna get more codes, you need to have several computers and email address.

By using one laptop with a free dynamic isp ,an unlimited local calling plan, 50 free emails address that forward to one e-mail address = 300 free movies.
Why 300? there are 3 different version of codes out there for new account. #1 one free download #2 $5 credit #3 99cent download code.
so we are talking about about 6 free movies per account.
PS. some of you may say that dail-up won't work on movielink site. But the above method is only to obtain codes. In any case, I used up 2 accounts so far watching free movies under same lap top with cable connecton.

What do you mean by get new codes? Do you mean actually getting the codes or using the codes? I was able to get multiple codes by just clearing the cache and cookies. I haven't used them yet so I'm not sure if I will be able to use all of them.

(even if I can only watch it for 24 hours)
I seem to recall that there is a hidden folder off of the Movielink folder in Program Files that cache's the movie's. You should be able to copy these files and burn them directly.
However, they used to offer movies in two formats. I'm seem to recall the Microsoft format being difficult to use. (I think it tried to verify the liscense via the internet or something).

How did you get "one free download" code? And 99cent download code can be applied only once per account.

I just grab like 100 coupon cards at whatever Trade Show I go to. MovieLink is ALWAYS there giving them out.
Got like 20 at the Digital Life show, and another 5 at the Linkshare event, and hope to get more at SES New York.
