This blog's parent company, AOL, is giving away free movie downloads on Saturday. You'll be able to choose from about 30 different movies available at AOL Video.
There will be a couple of Christmas-related titles including Jack Frost, and National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, but other titles, including Spiderman 2 will be available as well.
Downloads will be available starting at 6:00AM, and will be limited to one per person, although apparently you can download more than one per computer. I don't know if that means you can get extra movies if you enter additional email addresses or screen names, but of course I'd never advocate trying such a thing.
AOL usually sells movies for $10-$20, with TV shows going for about $2 per episode. But with a growing number of sites that people can visit for their video needs, this seems like a pretty smart promotion to get people to try out the service.

Dare I ask...is it Windows only?
