Alright I'm sure there are other questions like mine out there but I have to make it known again...why the hell do ppl keep asking about downloading episodes??? I mean, really! Is it that hard to just SAVE YOUR MONEY and buy the episodes or something?? I know it might be well over $100 to 200 to get the dvds to your fave series but don't you think its worth it, instead of waiting 2-3 days to download off of some site??!! Does someone agree with me??? I mean I have a terrible computer so I just BUY the dvds at frickin Barnes and Noble or some online site?? Sheesh!!! Sorry about that ppl. I'm done now.

Well what I have to say is, save your money. not for dvds but a better computer... THEN YOU WILL BECOME ONE OF US HAHAHAHAH and it doesn't take 3 days if you have cable and use torrent.

I've got a somewhat old computer and a 56k connection and it doesn't take me 3 days download an episode unless there aren't a lot of people are sharing it. The more people share an episode the faster it downloads, and if a lot of people are sharing I can download a 200MB episode in about 15 hours.

So all I pay for anime is about $10 a month for my internet connection and the costs of the CDs I use when I turn them into VCDs. Besides, I'd rather wait 15 hours or even a couple of days just to save myself $100 or $200. That's money I can put towards something else. However, if you like blowing money, I'm not going to argue with you. ^_^

Then what do you whant to talk about? HOW some character from some anime is cute and that you would like to mary him? (seen a lot like that) It takes me about 45 min to 1 hour to dl an ep off torrent, so I do not have your prob. I got a good comp. but if I could afford it I would gladly pay to keep the anime industries running for a long time. And it's like Mastaboog749 said save your money for a better comp..

Well I know you could pay 100 to 200 dollars to buy your favorite series but think about it. I have about a million anime that I'm watching, I can't spare my money to dish out money to every series. Downloading it off sites or with bit torrent is much easier. If I were rich then I'd probably buy everything..Anyway some series are long running with lots of episodes exceeding the pay of 200 dollars..and most of the time when you buy the whole series you get a rip off and find out you've wasted all your money.

All my money goes towards my car, college, food, and my place. I would buy them if I could and sometimes it takes longer to save up your money than it does to download but I do buy from time to time to support anime.

u r dumb kate. u think buying dvds will be worth the money, but its not if ur a big anime fan. it would take all ur money from ur wallet. and it doesnt take 2~3 days to download episodes. for me, it just takes about an hour to dl a episode(200mb files).

p.s. if u hab a crappy and shitty computer and use couple hundred bucks for anime dvds, BUY A FUCKEN COMPUTER

Dude let it go.

Pay when I can. Download when I can't. Its that simple for me. Some people just don't like to save money like me so I would rather dowload then save. But ocasionally I will buy anime like RK ,Yu Yu, CB, Trigun, etc.
