I recently just came across some money *cough* Well.. I've always run across money, but what I mean is money on paypal.

So my FAVORITE anime stream site just became private and pretty much shows only to donaters only now which kind of sucks. I was considering buying monthly subscriptions there, but if it was just me using it, it wouldn't be worth it.

So basically I'm going to have a little survey here for anyone that likes to watch anime leisurely or ritually (Like I used to.)

1) If I bought a subscription, would you like to get the information and join in the watching?
2) What are the chances that some jack-butt is going to run along, ask for the information and try and change it?
3) Would you consider donating small amounts (1$) every so often? Keyword would be donating just out of goodwill, wouldn't be forced upon anyone.

Too anyone interested, please fill out those 3 questions! I am interested in purchasing a subscription but I really don't want to be watching it alone. Would feel like such a waste of 5$ since I don't have time to watch it every minute of my life like I used to.

If anyone would like to take a look at the site, it's:

www.crunchyroll.com
It contains anime and Japanese Drama TV series, dunno why .

peekvid.com

I never really liked peekvid. Its slow, its awkward interface, and it doesnt have even CLOSE to the amount of anime that crunchyroll has. As well as that, crunchyroll has the full episodes and 32 pages worth of anime uploaded and more added daily.

It's a nice site, but I find this one more preferable.

With donating it should be high quality as well. Awesome-sauce.

EDIT: OH SHIZ ITS FREE AGAIN. Wtf mate? XD anyway...

Hmmm, well you can get anime else where, I remmeber noit posting a good link to something like 2000+ anime downloads, and you dont have to donate or anything.

And so Im guessing its $5 a month? If so, you can just get one month and get all the download links. And you could try searching it on google, and getting cache pages, that might get u in for free!

But if you got another 4 people, to put $1 a month into your paypal, it would be extremely worth it. I would, if you can get another 3 then it would be heaps cheap for all of us.

That's idiotic having to buy stuff that is free.

I say you shouldn't do it.

Edit: There are p2p programs you can use to download them for free.

Yeh, p2p is ok, but finding a good torrent with good seeders seeding anime is hard. I rather download off servers.

[hoju]

Yea, but he's talking about 'paying' for to download on servers.

[Greeny]

Yeh you dont really have to pay, I mean there are alternatives. but if you pay well your going to get good speed and a lot to download.

The speed depends mainly on your computer/connection, not as much on the server.

I don't see the reason why you're giving him good reasons to go ahead and buy the subscription.
