snumbers said: SOPA is an American law, they only care about anything that effects THEM... THEY wont block anime downloading sites BECAUSE it will NOT benefit them in any way what so ever! They will only block sites that have copywrited material such as WESTERN films and WESTERN songs..Anime will be unscathed if it ever passes in future. (Btw sopa is dead..for now) You sound awfully sure about this, which is not really convincing when no one could have really predicted the extent of the damage had SOPA passed. Many sites which hold anime also tend to have US licensed anime and are located in the US, which would have meant instant blocking. |
rekindledflame said: Can you honestly say you have never engaged in any form of piracy? I've always sat and wondered how some who are anti-piracy have rather extensive lists of unlicensed anime, especially one's that are currently airing. Obviously not. But I was just pointing out that the excuses people come up with are stupid. Do what you want, but don't try to justify something that's not justifiable. That's all. |

| is it illegal? Yes Will you get caught? No If you somehow got caught would u get in trouble? probably not or nothing serious |

| I do not believe anyone in America really gives a shit if you pirate Japanese sequential art and animation I'd also say that piracy is fine, if not completely justifiable |
| Yes it is but everyone does it anyway lol |
| Downloading pretty much ANYTHING is illegal unless you're paying for it. If it in some way takes away money from someone, it is considered stealing. And yet most of us do it... |
| Lets get some thing straight here Downloading is not Theft, Theft is the act of stealing physical property that is of value. Downloading is Copyright infringement. Which is entirely different. Which is kinda funny because if I literally walked into Funimation took a DVD that would be petty larceny and I would probably get minimum fine and 30 days in jail. But if I download a digital copy of that DVD it's copy right infringement which lands me in federal court and I paying 100s of dollars in damages and fines and up to 5 years in jail and now a felon for the rest of my life. |

| Jigero, I almost hit the 'like' button, but realized this isn't Facebook. >.> I download cus the video streaming for some animes are crap. I know I would never obtain all of the anime on my list legally. The only full show I've been able to watch on TV is Naruto. >.> Though I watch anime from their legal streaming holders whenever I can, but most anime just doesn't get officially subbed. |
