| I personally couldn't care less and am usually okay with anime that's 720p. |
| 720p. Most 1080p is just upscaling for the ongoing shows. |
| I am also already okay with 480P, beyond that will be too heavy for my computer. Would take forever to download high quality episode with my average internet speed. |

Raikozen said: Pretty much. Most shows don't even actually go for true 1080p for the entire time, since it costs a lot of money.720p. Most 1080p is just upscaling for the ongoing shows. To answer your question: Yes, it definitely does, but it annoys the hell out of me when I see grainy animation on my glorious tv. |
I'm also filled with pure-hearted ulterior motives. |
| Because my computer sucks, I got used to 480p. So yeah, I prefer 480p over other :D No laggggg. |
| It depends on how much I like them. If it's just a time waster, I'm happy enough with 480p. 720 for normal 1080 for shows I really love. |

| 1080p and the videos lag like a motherfucker on my comp |
| I don't really notice a difference, but I'm kinda compulsive so I need the best. |

| I personally prefer 480p, easiest to download, store and watch :) |
 |
| My internet connection is quite slow in loading 720p and beyond. "240p, we meet again" Though, I manage to get by with 420p just fine. |
 Just this once, I'll fulfill whatever your wish is. |
| I'm fine with 720p for most things, however something like Kara no Kyoukai or Suzumiya Haruhi no Shoushitsu are just begging for 1080p. |
 |
| I don't care for tv series, but for movies 720p. My poor pc plays 1080p videos in slow motion... |

| 1080p for Movies 720p/480p for shows I would like to have everything 1080, but I don't have enough hard drive and my internet speed kind of sucks. |

| I prefer 720p since it doesn't take as much space as 1080p but the quality is more than enough. I guess 1080p is only needed for real favourites or when you can see a great difference to 720p which most likely won't happen. |
| I don't really care. |
 |
| I'm fine with watching in 480p, although I do notice a difference between 480, 720 and 1080p simply because I edit using those resolutions a lot. But if it's something really special, I try to get it in 1080p. |
| Most anime are upscaled anyways. I think Japanese broadcast is closer to 720p. But I do care about 1080p when it exists. It makes a big different when blown up on my 100" screen. |

I'm a noob with computers but: what aspect of the computer determines whether or not your anime will lag? (ex. ram, gpu etc...) Like another user said graphics card mainly. Usually when you get the computer the specs are labeled on on the box or even on the computer. Like I have a Sony Vaio and it shows it full Hd 1080p also the types of media player you use and the codecs have a big impact. Anyways I prefer 720p I use to just stream but sometimes some stream websites rush to post the recent anime so the quality is terrible. The only stream with 720p capable that's free unlike crunchy rol,l is animeftw and that's because that site uses the DivX player. Downloading is better for me. I wish I was blessed enough to download 1080p at blazing speeds like you spoiled fools... slow as internet all I can manage is 720p and barely |

| No because my laptop's resolution makes 1080p look exactly the same as 720p |
| I'm fine with 480p. My monitor is old, so it wouldn't really make a difference if the resolution were any higher. |

Yeah unless it's a movie , you won't really find a difference in quality in 1080p on normal anime. The file size is obviously bigger and the detail is slightly enhanced but barely. Movies tend to be the only ones that get the full usage out of 1080p. |
| 720p is the maximum my monitor can handle and that is not going to change in the upcoming 10 years judging by the way marketing went. I fucking hate those new wide-screen monitors, gonna stick with 5x4. |
 |
| No it doesn't really bother me either way. 720 is better for what I am running though, so I tend to choose that. |

| Im fine with anything as long as its not grainy enough to where everything looks like blobs. |

monty1 said: my graphics card seems decent i think i need to dump VLC player Yeah I struggled with VLC player 3 weeks ago the images were grainy and distorted on most anime I played with it. So I switched to media player classic for a little but I was so use to VLC interface so I got the updated version of VLC which was VLC 2.04. Look into that one if you don't have it or switch to media player classic. Also if problems with VLC persist go to Tools>preferences>video and change the output from default to either OpenGL or DirectX this is only if problems are there but the new VLC is good so I doubt you will have problems. |
| It takes me forever to download shows that are in 720p U_U Even short series that are about 10-15 episodes long, it takes 2 weeks to download it to my computer, that's why I usually watch Anime online and I'm very satisfied with 360-480p |
| 1080p for downloads 720p for stsream |

| Well I mainly watch anime on my laptop which the screen is quite small so having 1080p torrents would not be worth the space |
 |
| As someone who started watching Anime on VHS just anything that isn't super blurry is fine for me :p honestly 480P/720P is absolutely fine. |

| I consider myself a stickler for quality, but I choose 720p. most HD stuff is 720p source anyhow, just with "professional" upscaling. The upgrade from SD to HD seems noticeable and worth it, but from HD to FULL HD the difference seems minor compared to the file size you trade off. I really wish sub/encode groups would calm down with the file sizes though, because I've noticed that certain Deadfish encode will have the same "noticeable" AV quality as some bloated 10-bit FLAC stuffed encode that instead of being 1GB is now 10GB |

| Well, I specifically bought a HD TV that can do 1080P, a PS3, and blurays, so I might as well get the full benefit. |

| 720 because 90% of stuff that comes out on tv in HD is in 720. 1080 is just upscaled unless it's the full blu-ray release. Even then i'll probably just download 720. Looks just as good (it's just anime, not a peter jackson movie) and uses 1/5th the HDD space. |

Though the 10-bit part may not apply so much to my size complaint, I'm still not a fan of it. I download UTW when possible and it's just problematic when I give files to others since most others cannot into 10-bit playback, and same goes for when I try to play it on XBMC. I still think they shouldn't bother with Hi10 since H.265 is right around the corner anyhow |
| Yes, 1080p takes too long to download and takes up too much space |
| i don't know everything i just know what i know... |
