If you're trying to get content to download; you'll probably have to pay for a service.<br>
Hulu, Netflix, Amazon Prime, and Redbox(just announced) all offer content for a monthly subscription.<br>
Flixter/Ultraviolet offers some content for a fee-per-movie. Amazon VOD also offers downloadable content.<br>
Other services offer similar options.<br>
<br>
Netflix has a Chrome extension that works pretty well as long as you're on a standard laptop or desktop (supposedly they're working on porting it to ARM chips).<br>
The others all seem to require flash on their websites, but with Flash they do generally seem to work on Linux.<br>
<br>
Some devices (Roku, "smart" TV sets, android tablets, etc...) have apps for Hulu and others; but for a computer you're mostly looking at the websites.<br>
<br>
If you just want user-generated free content, then YouTube and Vimeo both work pretty well on Linux. Vimeo actually offers better HTML5 support, and they have some pretty top-notch videographers on the site.<br>
