I am pretty confident that you can download video content however, I think the problem is two-fold 1) it depends on the host you are trying to download from. 2) it depends on WHAT movies you are trying to download. If it is a copyrighted work chances are is being hosted by a company used by the industry MPAA to flood the network with bogus files OR if they are real you won't be able to download them because of the way they've configured the client. This has been discussed in previous posts.

To test this,

Right now there are a significant number of people hosting content that has been produced by me on the gnutella network. you can use any of the following search queries to pull up listings for the content:

cbt mpg
cbt avi
cbt wmv

You should try to download one of the files. If you can then you can download videos / movies


Problem solved.


hope this helps.
