I don't think this has been posted here before? This site: http://www.publicdomaintorrents.com/ has a load of old movies available for download in various formats from full sized to PDA (and iPod!) size. There are some real classics like Nosferatu, Metropolis and Plan 9 from outer space!

I have downloaded a few and converted them using the 770 Media Converter and most seem to work. Could get Flash Gordon to work though damn it. The high powered PDA format ones seem to run very nicely on the 770 once converted.

Wanna put them online somewhere? Torrents perhaps?

Very cool, they have Memphis Belle! Torrenting the 700mb version now, I'll let everyone know what the final size is after media converter finishes with it.

Hard to believe Memphis Belle would be public domain.

It isn't the one you're thinking of. This is a 1944 documentary about the real thing.
