Stream's quality sucks in comparison to my blu ray rips, I can also correct errors in the subs if i got a downloaded copy.

I only download anime that I really like and stream the rest because I have some pretty slow internet....I just got done downloading a torrent for Ookiku Furikabutte and it took over a week lol. Then I store them on an external hard drive and watch them on my PS3.

phew... not really =/ i usually download them and say "ill just watch and delete it" ... but i never do >.> .. the only anime i ever deleted was rosario + vampire and the movie version of air "the later only because it came with the download of air series i got and i didn't want the movie"

I got 4 TB, a 640 Gb, and a 320 GB external HD just for mostly anime and other stuff.

I don't download much because I buy my anime from the anime store. :O

I only delete downloaded anime if I didn't like 'em. Or if I happen to actually buy them.

My laptop's hard drive is full, so if I want to watch anything new.... then yes lol.

This is pretty much my test for an anime to make my list of favorites. If I can't delete it then I know how much I enjoyed it. Basically, I've kept everything in my top 20 because even if I'm fairly sure I won't watch some of them again in their entirety I can always bring up my favorite episodes or my favorite moments pretty much on demand. Or if it's Kaiji then I've seen all 52 episodes three times by now with my favorite episodes being watched even more. And of course when I want a badass death I always turn to my Legend of the Galactic Heroes episodes.

I delete it when i need space.


i don't really give a fuck, if i need it i download it again, i dont usually rewatch things anyway.

By all means I should be deleting Guilty Crown.

But I'm guilty... of... not... deleting... the crown...

Bad puns are bad.

Luckily I just bought myself an external HD for my birthday last month as I realized I was getting into anime, so that gives me 1 TB to work with. I download as much as I can, then watch it, then keep it until I buy it. At least that's the plan. If it isn't available in the US, then I download it and keep it because with all the copyright crackdowns going on lately, I'm afraid the links will go down as well. Or worse, I'll have to use RapidShare....dear god. Right now, I've got way too much downloaded that I haven't watched yet, just look at my list. Hell, I'm downloading a series as I type this. Maybe I'm just addicted to downloading. There's something about having full access to an anime, with no commercials, no limits, and being able to put it on whatever device I want, and share it with friends too. Yeah, downloading's pretty great :D

Every once in a while, I'll come upon a masterpiece I wanna hold on to. And then I'll never rewatch it, because when I'm in the mood to actually watch something, I'll rather watch something new on the off chance that it'll be the next masterpiece.
So I really should just delete those as well. When the planets align and I finally decide to give NGE another go, I can redownload it easily.

What I do is if my desktop runs out of space, I will start deleting the anime I did not enjoy very much. But I always save all my anime on my portable hard drive so even if I delete them on my desktop, I will always have it on my portable hard drive. My desktop is like my backup in case my portable hard drive breaks or something.

I have no problem with that. I delete after watching. The ones I like the most I save in pen drive.

I delete some series that i know i won't rewatch but i don't want to delete any older series since they're sometimes difficult to find.

How could you not like ANother!!

I just download and keep them in some kind of temp-folder. And after the anime is finished I decide if it is worth keeping it. If it's not, it will get deleted.

I keep all my anime even I don't personally like it, just in case friends would want to watch it. Unless, of course its a bad quality video then I delete it.
