As of now content has been added that can be streamed on site. The content in question is a mix of TV episodes and independent films.

Everyone should however notice that most of the full movies and tv episodes are only available to US viewers. Pretty much everyone else will see a grayed out inactive Watch It button on the movie pages which could be confusing for some users who might believe that they could watch the movie but are missing something, for example a user account at IMDb.

The main reason for this move is that most content comes from other streaming media services like Hulu which are also only available to US viewers or those who know how to use a VPN to view the contents.

There seems to have been some recent changes as well which are great for all users. Trailers and clips of movies are now prominently displayed on the right side and everyone can watch them without restrictions. That’s an interesting feature for many users who used to visit the Apple Trailers website to see the latest movie trailers.

It happens that I sometimes come upon a trailer that I want to download to watch again, or show a friend who does not have internet. There are unfortunately no download links at Apples Trailers site and I was beginning my search for an easy way to download the trailers I wanted in the quality I selected. The easiest way that I discovered was to use the excellent Greasemonkey script called Apple Trailer Downloads which does exactly what the name suggests.

download apple trailers It adds a little box to the right lower corner of the screen with direct download links to the movies. The box appears when you open a page on Apples website with the trailer links that would play in your browser.

It happens from time to time that the box does not appear because of a custom site that was designed for a movie. This is not a problem at all. Just click on the movie that you want to download and the box appears right when the movie starts to load.

Let me explain the process of installing the Greasemonkey extension for Firefox and the Apple Trailer Download script for it. Install the Greasemonkey extension for Firefox following the link given above. You do need to restart Firefox first and install the Apple Trailer Downloads script after the restart.

Once the extension and the script have been installed you can visit Apples Trailers page and download all the trailers that you want. Just remember to load the movie if the box does not appear by itself.
