perfect collections

Since this has become about R1 vs HK debate, I'll give my 2 cents. I agree with Onizuka. I watch fansubs 90% of the time, so even if the US anime industry flopped because of piracy, I'd be perfectly happy sticking to fansubs. I almost never listen to the English dubs, so it seems pointless for me to have to pay $80 or $60 for them ($40 I would consider, but it'd better be a damn good series). Besides, most new anime series these days lack originality, are saturated with pointless fanservice and corny dialogue; very rarely does a truly memorable title gets introduced. And with the increasing quality of fansubs these days due to high-definition broadcasts in Japan, the quality gap between fansubs and DVDs is quickly closing.
Macross. An experience often imitated, but NEVER duplicated. Shame on those who think otherwise.

Precisely. Why should I pay for something I can get for free?

Well I guess it's this kind of thinking that motivates the crackdown on piracy. Although piracy seems like it will always be a problem, I imagine it will become increasingly difficult to get a hold of fansubs. Plus, wasn't it MediaBlasters or some company who brought out some new anime and right from the get go said don't fansub and/or distribute our anime even though it hadn't been licenced in the U.S. yet??? Seems to me, some anime companies are keeping a close eye on the distribution of their anime right when they release it in Japan because of piracy.

I wonder how far legislation intends to go when it comes to downloading and copyright laws. I believe us Canadians will start to face some sort of legislation in the not so distant future. Sad
Well this discussion just got a whole lot depressing. Let's change the focus slightly, shall we....

For me it's the anime that counts, I think that 80% of my collection is composed of hk anime dvds, I just picked up the 13th Kingdom perfect collection for 48 bucks, beats 270 for the R1's. Don't get me wrong-I will buy R1's if the price is right.
I love anime-but I still have a life-but not by choice......?
