Man, it's been so long since I've seen any new R1 rips.

I mostly pick up R1 just because there aren't decent R1 rips available. Sad, but true. Most companies have obscene prices, specifically Lain and Escaflowne. I know this anime stuff is really popular and still in its 'cool' phase, but gimme a break. I guess companies have to make money somehow. All I ask is they back up their greed with a little more substance.

When a series is decently priced or goes on sale I will generally pick it up in R1 format or if it's just that cool.
