Default Site for unlimited downloads

http://phonedownloadhub.com/

Has anyone used this site? For $39 special offer you get unlimited downloads of movies, TV shows, music, etc., with no other fees ever. It looks really good and is supposed to be easy to use. I'm interested in knowing if anyone has used them or has an opinion for me. I'm not a techie and having access to a site like this that's easy to use would be excellent. I travel a lot and I'd love to be able to take movies on my iPhone. The site was recommended by PC Magazine.

Makes it sound like they don't really do anything besides tell you where software can be found.

But it's recommended by PC Magazine. That should count for a lot, no? I'm just asking; I have no idea but place a lot on a recommendation like that, or could that be false? It's on a website where I saw the site mentioned.

Purchasing a iPhonedownloadsnet.com membership does not grant you a license to upload or download copyrighted material. iPhonedownloadsnet.com does not
provide a direct database for downloading, but we do provide members with the necessary software, tutorials,
a resource directory, and unlimited support for their downloading needs. Please respect the copyright laws and take proper
precautions when sharing P2P iphone files, including using strong anti-virus software.
Click here for more on copyright and peer-to-peer file sharing.

And then the link is broken.

So basically you're paying someone show you how to download stuff illegally.

I use Giganews Usenet Service and love it. Yes, it has a $25 monthly fee for unlimited downloads (free 14 day trial, first 3 months 50% off), but they have just increased to a full 1 year rentention. There are also cheaper packages too.

Combine the Giganews account with Newsleecher for a very simple and effiecent download experience.

Oh, not that this is the purpose of my post, but if you do decide to subscribe to Giganews, PM me first so I can refer you. A referral is worth $15.
