| I download anime all the time, mostly off of boxtorrents. Yeah, I get my fair share of illegal anime, even if it is all hentai. I have my boxed set of Trigun (which I got for $24.00, by the way), so I'm set. | |||

| I personally don't because my computer doesn't have the disk space (I'm sitting at 3 gigs free ... ouch).
A lot of my friends do though, so that's how I usually see things that are unlicensed ... etc. (Last edited by The Xeogred on 03-09-05 05:19 PM) |

| I'm not into dling anime. It's something I just don't do because my honor tells me to get the fan subbed dvds. XD But that's about it. Anyway I really don't like the wait. PLUS I have problems with Bit Torrent. I hate Bit Torrent. | |||

| Ya... i havn't used alot of BitTorrent but what i have used has worked very well i.e. Last Exile, Puni Puni Poemi, and someting else i think... but i usually used to work with Kazaa and Bearshare... but i'm all about the Torrents now... heh... and technically... i don't download anime... my friend does... but he doesn't watch anime and he only does it cuz he has cable and i have dial up and i asked him to... so i still consider that to be me downloading animes.... | |||

| anime is to be shared in my opinion, i have tons of bittorrents, this all just goes eye and eye pratically with like p2p networks and music sharing, its wrong to steal, but its not wrong to share =p but I but alot of anime and Manga to so i just see it as im re-embersing them in another way. Only thing that sucks is that the dubbed versions suck, the orignal japanese version subed is so much better in my opion. (Last edited by Boondock Saint on 03-09-05 08:28 PM) |

| i say, as long as you're just DLing it for your own personal pleasure, and not selling it to anyone, no one should care. i mean, so what if i DL'em, i'll never buy'em anyways. i'll find one way or another to watch it w/o paying for it regardless. so yeah =/ and most ppl are like me, who do not plan to ever buy anything, and could careless if we could or could not watch it. if i get something good, good for me, if i dont get it, then w/e, i wont cry or nothing. | |||

| Well, it may not mean a whole lot, but I at least buy as much anime as I download. There are just some that I'd rather get on DVD. For long series, like Naruto, I think buying them is a bit too much to spend. As far as the illegal stuff goes, what do you think make more money here in the US? Anime, or music? Anime is going to be one of the last things on the minds of the Feds because it's not popular, and by that I mean totally mainstream, like music. which is something that generates billions each year. If Pokemon was as big now as it was way back yonder and people were downloading like crazy, then there would probably be a problem. Besides, the only time you can DL anime is if it hasn't been licensed yet. When something isn't licensed, is it legal to arrest somebody for downloading it? I ask that as a question of curiousity becuase I don't know. | |||

Originally posted by Cyro Xero That's a good point about longer running series, like Naruto, Kenshin, etc. You'd need a lot of money to buy those entire sets. Also, some people just download a few episodes or so to "test" the anime out, and see how it is. That way, if you ended up hating it, you really wouldn't have wasted your money in the first place. I honestly would rather own a lot of anime, but currently, I don't have a job, and don't have that much money at all ... and well, games come first.
Not sure about the legal issues though. 
I'd say no big deal if it's unlicensed, you should have every right to download whatever you want then, but if it's licensed ... then I'd say nobody can help you out there. (Last edited by The Xeogred on 03-10-05 10:49 PM) |

Originally posted by Kaijin And thats why you should spend just a little more money to get DSL or cable. Think about it: If you were to go to the store and buy anime, it would cost you a good chunk of change, compare downloading it faster, to going out and buying it. It makes sense in my book |

| I'm going to be getting Naruto Eps 1 - 105... and it's going to take me approximetly one hour... but i'm cheating... a friend of mine actually got it before me... and he is going to put it on my External Harddrive... so it isn't going to take very long... and i too have Dial up... thats why i have my friends download my anime... it's much faster... hey if you want a fast download for manga that can be used even wiht Dial up... go to...
Directmanga.com it has just about anything you can think of... there reliable... free... and the translations are actually pretty good... |

| I don't download much anime. Not for lack of trying though. I had a bunch of movies a while back but my computer sucks right now, i've got dialup and a small hard drive so I can't really download what I would like to, like Naruto or Kenshin or RahXephon.
