So , considering OM has shut down all manga . Where are we going to read manga online now ?


Mangafox for now. Or Mangahut. You're honestly just better off downloading. I can help you with that if you want.

Of course it costs money to run a site. But if it cost him any money to run, he wouldn't be running the website. So naturally that means the owner is making a profit.

And when he is trying to sell the site for millions of dollars....well. I think that shows just how much money he actually is making.
You're both an idiot, and have a point. Let's address:

OneManga's owner selling it for $$$. Well, that would be making a profit.

Though, I'll admit there's even some problems with that. He/she's not making a profit from manga, but rather a social networking resource. This is even more so the case if the planned sale was not a transfer but actually an acquisition, similar to MAL's relationship to CraveOnline.

To put it another way, you have to look at the flow of money. No one is paying for scanlations in this case. The money comes from ad agencies, and in the case of an acquisition the company buying the site. No illegal activity involved, and only morally wrong by association (which is a rather subjective matter). If the site owner is making money, it's actually from the fact that the site is a hub of internet social activity (well, kinda).

But if you have beef with the site owner making a profit, then you have a valid point.

However,

What the fuck? Please explain this, since your in later posts you seem to know what profit is and what adclick services are.

So how is it that OneManga went down and NarutoFan is still up? Amirite? Or did Tazmo get prosecuted after all?

This site is worth about $32,000 atm.
Then look at this shit:
http://manga.gamestotal.com/h_donate.htm
And this is only a tiny little site. I'm telling you. Manga sites are fucking completely impossible to generate money from (unless you pay subscriptions like the faggot Tazmo), so I don't get why dumbasses keep thinking these FREE scanlation manga hosting sites are in it for the money. My God people.
