This isn't a TV! Or is it?
During my days as a college freshman, far away from home, I often was stuck with a lot of free time (Especially on the holidays). It is then I discovered youtube. I found it amazing I could watch all these Телевидение shows I just loved back home(where I had Satellite)! Of course, eventually Youtube merged with Google and took down many of these beloved shows. Therefore, I looked elsewhere: Where might I get my Далее fix for X-Files, Smallville, или The Office, или watch Остаться в живых season 3 after it already ended? I did not have a lot of money to be spending on DVD Season box sets.
The result is a wide библиотека of video sharing sites and the methods to find what I’m looking for. So let’s start at the beginning:
Television Shows
How do I word my search?
If Ты are searching for a Live-action Показать (that is, not Мультики или anime), this method is suggested:
First, remember these common Обмен видео websites:
www.youtube.com
www.sidereel.com (A website where people place Ссылки to episodes from many sources)
www.dailymotion.com (Lots of French subs)
www.divx.com (a lot of Spanish and german subs - high quality videos)
www.veoh.com
www.movie6.net/tv/
link
(Fanpop is also a great place to find videos!)
Now how to word your search. Say Ты are looking for Тайны Смолвиля Season 1 Episode 2 : Metamorphasis. This might seem like a logical way to search. However, there are several different ways the people who Загрузить these Видео will word the titles and tags.
The other common ways are this:
Тайны Смолвиля 1x02
Тайны Смолвиля S01E02
Тайны Смолвиля 102
Metamorphasis
Ты may think Ты cannot find a particular video, but sometimes Ты can only find it by wording it correctly.
**File-Hosting Websites**
Now, some Телевидение shows simply are too old или not Популярное enough to be found on these Обмен видео sites.
Another method I have found very useful is going to www.google.com and typing in
‘Smallville 1x02 Megaupload’
Adding megaupload brings up several results that include megaupload Ссылки of this episode. However, Ты will have to download the file instead of watching a stream.
Ты may also try other file-hosting sites such as sendspace или rapidshare instead of megaupload.
****
Anime-
Finding Аниме is tricky, because it comes in many formats (Japanese dub или RAW, English subbed and English dub).
Good video-streaming websites to find Аниме on are:
www.anime6.org
www.veoh.com
www.sidereel.com
www.divx.com
www.youtube.com
Download websites:

There are many others I’m sure but these are the ones that I’ve used.
While Аниме have ‘seasons’ typically they are labeled by the total episode number. Even if an Аниме is in its секунда season, episode 2, it will often read “<Anime> Episode 28”
Example: Death note episode 2: Showdown
Terminology to Поиск with:
Death note 2
Death note 02
Death note Showdown
02 showdown
*Depending on what type Ты are looking for, also add : RAW, Eng sub, Eng dub. Sometimes this is not necessary as the Аниме only comes in 1 или 2 types.
*You can also use the megaupload method to find episodes.
Some new sites i've found since Письмо this article:
www.livevideo.com
www.gofish.com
www.surfthechannel.com
www.videostored.com
www.megavideo.com <--This is a great one!
I have found that sometimes it is difficult to find Видео of Фильмы или tv shows because the user who uploaded it masked the video name by putting gibberish.
My Совет is to try less obvious Теги (Such as Will smith to find the movie "I am Legend", или IAL --the abbreviation of the movie name) and then sort your results by LENGTH.
If the full movie is on the website Ты will see it near the beginning. This also works when looking for Аниме или tv shows--most are around 22-24 минуты long. Hour-long tv shows are 41-44 минуты long.
