if u like anime go to animefreak.tv or animeratio.com and netfilx got some good anime too i watched all kind of anime smile


I prefer to buy the anime. It helps the industry, helps the economy, helps my state, and gives me something more permanent than a website.

lol that's one reason why so many USA divisions are shutting down. It's easier and cheaper to get an illegal fansub of a show or watch it for free on websites that don't have the licensing rights (IE google video, youtube) than to actually buy the show.

Combine that with how expensive shipping costs are, how expensive rent is on buildings, and the general lack of family disposable income - you get a floundering industry.

Sure, I'll watch a series on Hulu, but Hulu pays the distributors for the rights to play the series on their website. I also will buy the series if I like it, although I usually only buy one or two per paycheck. Granted, I don't know if animefreak.tv or animeratio.com does the same thing as Hulu.
