Downloading with lightspeed movies

Has anyone had any experience with this site. I paid 20 dollars and all I received was access to sites that were free to use anyway. I had all sorts of problems with Kazaa pop ups and virus alerts. The speeds were no different either. I actually thought I was signing up for a service that allowed legal downloads. Obviously that was not the case either. They supposedly had a money back guarantee. I have tried 3 times to reach their support and received no response. I joined through a site called onlinereviewsboard and I have made several attempts to contact them, alas to no avail. It appears that I have been ripped off. Maybe someone out there can give me any stories of their experiences and if there was any resolution.
Thank you for any input.

Well you my freind have been scamed. I fell sorry for you. Ok I got ripped off before too. Somthing called MP3 Music. It got shut down I think. $40 it cost me. It only gave me links to LimeWire and Trusty Files. Which I already had used before. So I called them. It said the phone # had ben shut down. I tried to email them. No answer. So I just said forget it. I downloaded Frost Wire (Great program), uTorrent (For Torrents), and Sheeraza. I still use them. I have 112 Movies I have burrned to a DVD. 31 games that work. 643 MP3 files with max quilty. Just goes to show you. Never pay for smothing you are not sure about. If you want a ligit program. Get iTunes, Napster, or Rhapsody. They are all ligit programs for music. NEVER pay for somthing that dosn't talk about or show you pictures of THEIR program.

Just two examples of the same thing. If you read the terms and conditions you will most probable find a clause like that mentioned in the first link.

Re: Downloading with lightspeed movies

Thanks for the feedback. Yes I thought just the same thing about being ripped off. Pretty naive of me actually. I really believed that it was a legitimate deal. I even saw some good reviews, and yes, anyone could have written them.I have paypal working on the problem right now.
Oh well live and learn.

I noticed the software you have on your computer and just wondered which of the converting programs you have work the best in terms of variety to convert. Also have you tried vso software at all?

The final episode.
I contacted paypal and the day after I received a refund from this company that handled lightspeedmovies. Beware of this site. it really is a scam.
Company was clickbank.
