Anime Access

Spender · Posted: Sun Oct 23, 2005 1:07 pm Post subject:

I wish I had more access to anime, but unfortuneately, I live in a small town on the Canadian prairies. Also, my computer is horrible at downloading video (56K, and I dont have the right programs and such) So far, my main access to anime has been watching what little amount I can on TV, but lately, I've been starting to lean towards buying whatever I can. I'd order some online, but right now, my financial situation is pretty tight, and I need to limit my spending.

I cast my vote as only internet, even though I applied to all of those choices. I have borrowed anime from one of my friends a few times, such as Neon Genesis Evangelion. I have also bought a bunch and seen a few on TV, though not many excite me on TV. However, my main source is on the internet. For some dubbed animes that I have seen on TV and was too impatient to wait to see the next episode (or couldn't stand the dubbing), I would download the series (subbed). However, some series became licensed and were taken off the internet, such as Neon Genesis, so I resorted to borrowing them from my friend (only one of my close friends has an anime collection of animes I haven't seen) or buying them. Some animes I liked so much that it made me want to buy the actual DVDs, even if I had already downloaded and watched the whole series.

Too general, the poll i mean. Of course almost everyone dl their anime since raws and for that matter subs come much faster before licensing. once it's been licensed i'd buy them. I'd buy the entire licensed series if i think the sub DVD is better than what i dl and it's VERY GOOD cos im not very rich (DVD prices hit the skies here) but i will buy OST CDs for the sake of quality. I borrow from friends too if i dont have the bandwidth to dload myself.

Watching anime from TV can be a hassle especially when I need to pay extra to the cable company in my area to get the anime channel so I get my weekly fix from the internet instead. Smile

I originally got all of mine by buying it and watching it on tv, then I found a few websites that would do direct download by accident and told one of my friends about it. He then said "where have you been, living in a cave" and he showed me all the bittorrent sites and kazaa since then I've probably downloaded a terabytes worth of anime. It's always downloading non-stop in my appartment.
