one other thing though, the site is kinda confusing so make sure you go to the pc movie section.

i've tried everything on this page and +k to all for the help. so far the only thing that has worked is letmewatchthis and stewie's link (which was similar, just a different website) but they stream super slow and it has to pause like every 5 seconds.. on a 2 and half hour movie. i've been tryin for like 2 hours now so if i can't get it to work i'm just gonna rent it.

Once it finishes, there will be a video file in your Downloads folder (~/user/Library/Downloads), named whatever the torrenter named it. It will most likely have a .mov or .wmv ending, as that is the file type. Double click on it, and it will open an application called Quicktime, which it will play in. QUality might not be the best, but it will work.

While the torrent is going, see if Hulu (www.hulu.com) or Netflix has it.

He has a mac so hopefully it's not .wmv. Almost every movie I have downloaded is avi, but yeah they are tricky to find. "Show In Finder" will be your best friend when it comes to macs.

He should double click it. If it says "this filetype is not supported" he needs to go and download VLC. Brilliant piece of software

most definitely! I think I found a codec package for quicktime so wmv works for me now. New macs might already have it, mine is a couple years old.

VLC is def the shit though.
