| What is your way of getting anime? Downloading? Shopping? TV? Borrowing from friends? :)) If your answer is downloading then give as much information as possible: software, web pages, ports(!), ip's, irc servers, channels, workarounds, you know, all that 'stuff' you use to get whatever anime you want as fast as possible. I bet there are alot of ppl outthere that doesn't know how to use a torrent, irc or p2p client! So give us your info and we will give you... whatever we can in return! P.S.: this is my first post so excuseme if this thread should belong somewhere else, is already started OR EVEN doesn't belong in this forum! Total n00b and proud of it =:p |

| downloading--->torrents (TT mostly) and sometimes irc bots if faust links me in irc because he is awesome :D and..... if a friend had the anime then I'd love to borrow it! :D |

| Torrent. |
 |
| 70% torrents, 20% anime club showing, 10% Netflix (mostly older shows that are now on DVD). I NEVER buy anything unless I've seen it. The only two exceptions are Le Chevalier D'Eon and Hellsing Ultimate because I couldn't stand the Engrish and wanted to watch them dubbed. |
 |
| Downloading NZB's from Binsearch.info. |
| Licensed - Buying, getting from the library Unlicensed - Torrents |
| I download from TT and off the fansubs irc chan. |
| I stream licensed anime, torrent unlicensed. |
| Torrents and IRC. I buy animu about 0.001% of the time. |
| Torrent easy and free |
| Almost always through torrents, sometimes IRC if I'm looking to watch something rather quick, or if I just need a single episode. Occasionally DDL if IRC doesn't work out in that situation, and I've bought a few series. I've borrowed a few DVD's in the past, but it's mostly me borrowing out to my friends :P |
  |
| I download a lot and purchase the good stuff on DVD. |
 ...even a saint needs a soldier to do the dirty work. |
| Mainly torrents & DDL Some stuff I leeched from a friend And bought a few dvd's >__>; |
 |
| Torrents, and the really good series I purchase the DVDs (I try to get boxed sets, as they are usually cheaper) |
 |
| Borrow from a friend, of what they own. Download if i cant buy it, or can't wait for it, see if i like before i buy Buy, if i love the series |
     |
| Most Download and borrow from frend and somtimes buy If I know its a good one |
     |
| For me it's downloading as i don't have the money right now to buy everything i have on my list :( Primary source is irc. Have 2 bots + ftp sitting on my T3 home line so I'm in a few private channels with..pretty much every distro bot with 20+mbit upload. Using torrents only for seeding for a certain group... |
| I buy all my anime from Animenation, Robert's anime corner store, and Best Buy. The only thing that I haven't bought is Trinity Blood since a friend just put it on my computer for me and left me a note that I would watch it. So basically I spend too money =( There is always the free stuff on cartoon network for me to watch. |
| Watch first, decide later! |
| w00t, youtube! but theyre getting more strict on licensed stuff, so i use truveo.com which cross references allmost all great streaming vid sites. if that fails, i try megavideo. although, i usually only view from streaming for older anime, since i like watching vids in quality and full screen. usually i torrent new anime, since i hate ddl from sites like megauploads and rapidshare since i cant use a dl manager unless i pay, but that defeats the purpose of free anime. torrents ftw! |

 |
| Torrent all the way.... It's free It's easier My country is huge and doesn't sell anime at all |
     |
| Why is this in the .hack//G.U. Trilogy board? I download it all. |
 |
| Torrent and Direct. Sometimes rent or watch online. |
 |
| Crunchyroll and Veoh. I buy the dvds if I'm a fan of the series. |
 |
| I mainly use torrents or buy the DVD. If I'm pressed for time I use youtube, veoh, or direct downloads. |
| I write reviews for a DVD site, so funimation and ADV send me stuff. |
| Like Shoujo? Visit: Emily's Random Shoujo Manga Page |
| I download via torrents, then if I like it I buy it. A lot of the DVDs I have are of anime that I first saw on Adult Swim (Cowboy Bebop, FLCl, GitS SAC and the likes). |
 |
| I purchase all of my anime. If I watch it streamed for instance Gurren Lagann I vow to purchase it when it is available on DVD. |
 |
| I used to use torrents but my Internet provider started to limit p-2-p connections :/ So now I download anime from rapidshare [via database sites] or direct download them from various sites. |
| - |
| Torrents, don't think I get anime from anywhere else ^^ |
| DVDs and television for the licensed stuff. One show I watch legal streaming, but it's one of those "interested enough to keep watching, but doubt I'd buy it" sort of things, so the quality isn't a big issue for me on that one. Torrents for the unlicensed stuff. |
 |
| If I watch a title online then it is either a streaming episode or a direct download (if it's available); I cannot stand torrents because I am a pretty impatient person. But most of the time I would rather purcahse a DVD or borrow a DVD from a friend. |
| i normally use torrents, but sometimes i download them directly. |
 |
| Torrents... I download more than I watch, so there's always something to watch. And if an anime ends up being one of my absolute favorites then I'll buy them on DVD. |
