Cant those sites just have users upload manga, and have it where it says "we are not responsible for any uploaded content" or whatever? Its so simple to solve this shit

FUCKINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGG RAAAAAAAAAGGGGGEEEEEEEEEEEE

>>37862824
you tried getting sued nigger. Also lrn2 download faggot.

Either that or getting litigation up the ass and taken down forever.

I knew this would happen, I told you all. Now enjoy your rage.

>>37862885
DMCA "safe harbor" bs

host site on another country that don't give a ass.

problem solved

Meh. Now I just have to download instead of go to sites like this.

Doesn't mean much, just marginally more effort on my part, and it will mean I'm less likely to stumble upon a good series that I enjoy.

I was just going to start a thread about this. Yotsuba, Franken Fran, Teppu, Berserk... all gone.

>>37862885
That's like moot saying "I'm not responsible for the CP, so I'm not gonan even try to take it down." ... he'd be fucked.

Some of the other manga sites actaully DO just have systems where users post shit, but do you really think that they'll take that excuse? They didnt CREATE the content no, but they are hosting it an making it available for people to use, so in the eyes of the suits doing this its just as bad.

host the site in russia. problem solved.

when's it go into effect?

So tell me why I don't just go directly to the scanlator's site for my manga?

These fucking publishers browse /a/.

>They don't use Mangafox

Host site in Russia. Watch Russia not give a fuck about what those fucking Nips want. Yeah.

isn't it mostly just series licensed in N america that's taken down?

>>37863065
Now, fellow stalker.

Suddenly all my bookmarked series are useless.

And nothing of value was lost. This is a great day. Now you all will have to work for your manga, fags.

So baaaaaaaaaaack to onemanga again, god.
The only manga it hasn't that I follow is domina no do.

Shit just got real

>>37863097

Thanks for the obvious

I'm amazed no one has even considered a DDoS attack on the coalition website if there is even such a thing.

>>37863065
It's already in effect these are the series they removed
http://www.mangatoshokan.com/forums/showthread.php?6255-List-of-Removed-Series

Looks like I'll I'll have to start watching the releases list on manga updates now.

Tried to make a thread about this. They should just call it manwatoshokan now....

>>37863173
and thats going to achieve what? stupid child, gtfo before i call your mother.

>>37863047
>>37863102

this. EVERYTHING is legal in Russia. but the host will probably have to pay the mafiya "protection" money,

>>37863181
They removed more though.

I think the time has come, /a/.

>>37862824
>oh it isn't serious shit
>go read Lucifer and the biscuit hammer

>>37863173
Because everyone who can give a fuck large enough to DDOS them can get their manga elsewhere.

>>37863274
Yeah there are way more then those missing and removed as well, they just didn't put them on there for some reason. Oh well fuck em and let the site die, they have nothing left anyway.

Good thing I download my manga.

Hahaha kids dont have easy access to manga anymore. I wish this has happened alot sooner, perhaps /a/ would be less of a shithole.

I read the press release to the tune of this:

http://subhangi.vox.com/library/audio/6a00c2252672b98e1d00cd970bdfaf4cd5.html

HMMMMM

AND NOTHING OF VALUE WAS LOST

>>37863266
>Use remote Siberian outpost
Mafia and cooling problems solved!

So any sites I can go to now to read up on manga?

#lurk is gonna go down too if no one pays dem bills

>>37863385
Scanlator's sites. And download them.

>>37863385
Pretty sure Mangafox has series still, minus lolis.

THEY REMOVED ALL THE FUCKING MANGA ALL SADF !!! ALLL THEM !!!!!!

where can i download my manga?

>>37863173

NO MORE GHOST? THIS MEANS WAR

>>37863266
Russian poster here, you are fucking retarded to think that way. Recently our biggest torrent tracker has just lost its domain name due to some copyright claim, and tons of content were removed from it earlier for the same reason.

>>37863254
You fool, I'm not suggesting a simple raid on a website. I wish to summon legion and launch an IRL operation in this. This on same level of fail as ACTA

How much of a neckbeard do you have to be to care where or how people read manga? I switch between downloads and online depending on the quality and translation accuracy and I could give a fuck about how other people read it.

My face when i realize the only people effected by this are kids and the shittyest posters on /a/

You must have known it couldn't last forever.
I mean, I hate funimation viz and all those publishing cancers and I doubt they'd be able to do what the RIAA has been trying to do for an eternity but a neatly done site with every single published manga available to anyone?
Thats too much. IRC, torrents and other less obvious and trackable places are still going to have all the stuff but the era of free online manga will be over soon.
You can thank every little kid that buys manga in the US for this shit by the way. They are the ones funding this campaign.

You faggots asking where to download, google or #lurk the fuck more, because I'm not telling you summerfaggots shit anymore, that's how they get the sites.

>>37862824
well I can't read kodomo no jikan anymore meh oh well

Eh, only used aggregator sites because I'm lazy and could just scroll through all the updates. Time to figure out how RSS feeds work...

>>37863524
>kids
>using MangaToshokan
I think you're confusing it with Mangafox faggot.

fuck me and not knowing any scanlators

this is a bad move for publishers. theres going to be even less exposure to new series.

Oh well, all I read is Naruto, Bleach, and One Piece. And they're always on Manga Stream. Sorry mangafags. :P

>>37863097
>implying I would use any site that buckles under non-legal threads from advertisers and moralfags

Do they still have Gantz?

>>37863518

Shhhhh, let the little kids go on raging at how other people read manga, it's entertaining.

Because im intellegent enough to know that those websites make illegal manga far to public and those sites are going to be the downfall of free scanlations. Not to mention that easy access means non-fans will read it for lack of anything better to do and that will draw more shitheads like you to this website.

>>37863420
>my face when publishers target mangatoshokan but not mangafox, onemanga, mangavolume, etc because MT's the only one that that folks dont avoid like a penis-melting virus

Who cares, online manga reading sites are shit anyway. Learn to download.

>>37863645
Yeah all I read is Naruto too, he's the coolest XD

>>37863550

>blame every kid that buys manga

HAHAHA

You have no idea what you're talking about.

I'm raging, but this was bound to happen sooner or later. Now, any good manga readers?

>>37863359

Amazing.

lol, the day comes

when the manga industry shoots itself in the chest


gg manga industry, you wont be missed

And nothing of value was lost.

>this is a good move for publishers. theres going to be even less piracy to new series
fix'd. If you think people who don't even bother to download from the scanlator's website would buy manga, you're an idiot

>>37863717
Yeah, download your manga

>>37863717
just use onemanga, it still has most of its stuff that isn't extreme.

I find it extremely difficult to believe any of the posts in this thread are from people over the age of 15.

So, uh, Railgun and Aki-sora are licensed? I didn't know...

>Just recently finish changing all my bookmarks from mangafox to mangatoshkan
>this happens
>none of my links work anymore
>my face

God damn it, now I don't know where I was in all the manga I was reading, and need to get everything through bakaupdates or scanlator sites.

>>37863671
MangaFox has eliminated most of its licensed manga by now.

>>37863777
>hurrdurr I find it hard to believe that people are upset over a popular online manga reading site removing 3/4 of their entire series selection so I will just call them 12 year olds

>>37863807
Unfortunately, mangaupdates doesn't have links anymore either...

>>37863844
ahahahaha_faggot.jpg

>>37863844

People who make posts like what you quoted don't read manga in the first place, so they should be ignored.

When mangafox and a bunch of others went shit people were all like "OH IT IS FINE, MANGATOSHOKAN WILL NEVER REMOVE SERIES".

AND I TOLD YOU THIS WOULD HAPPEN SOMEDAY.

But, just because I said that doesn't mean that I wanted that to happen, I don't like to download mangas, not at all, but it seems like it is the only way now.
I guess there isn't another place like mangatoshokan, right guys?

There appears to be more removed than what's on the list. Will those come back?

>>37863858
It does however, kindly link you to the scanlator's site.

Anybody know any new manga sites to read? I dont need to download my manga.

Oh wow.
Looks like Mango industry killing itself. lol

well looking at the list, there's a lot of good ones being removed but a lot more are staying, so im grumpy but ultimately ok with this

plus i only read Big 3 online, good manga actually gets downloaded

what you faggots fail to realize is this is just the start soon all the other sites you're talking about going to instead will be owned too, torrent sites are big on the lists of sites to take down get ready faggots the internet you once cherished and loved is going to go away. expect major shit to be happening in the next 6 months

Ohh happy day. I look forward to the tears you kids shed when the rest of them die to. Illegal manga does not get shared in full view of the public with out consequences, why cant children understand that?

>>37863904
>>37863904
>>37863904

>>37863904

Nope, not unless MT goes, "Fuck you, I'm putting them back" (not likely) or the publishers go, "We went too far, sorry guys, you can put 'em back" (VERY unlikely).

90% of the manga is gone, might as well not go there anymore.

>>37862824
Pussies. Pussies everywhere

>>37863920
onemanga still works for most series, except berskerker, sword of the stranger and extreme shit like domina no do.

>have 189 bookmarks of stuff I want to read on mangatoshokan
>lol legalpressure
>bookmarks rendered useless

>Another online manga reading site down.
>Laugh at all the mad faggots in this thread
>I download more manga.
>My face.

>>37863737
Holy shit, they even took down some manga that would never get licenses or even read, wtf.

>>37863798
Japanese publishers are in on this.

>>37863980
All the other sites have shit quality.

The only reason I used mangatoshokan instead of getting directly from source was the good quality.

>>37863969
So why aren't they on the list then

>>37863926
how does removing pirated material kill themselves.. oh wait I see. I will be fair I have not bought any manga in 8 years.

>>37863956
And it will be the online readers that ruin it for everyone and you kids that helped them do it. You bite your nose off to spite your face.

This is only the beginning. Soon mangaupdates and individual scanlator sites will be targeted. This is going to suck considering I read a ton of series and having an aggregator site like mangaupdates is incredibly helpful. I'd rather not be forced to join 100 IRC channels.

oh god, OH NO; PLEASE, MANGA GODS, DONT LET THIS HAPPEN
Mangatoshokan was my last resort.... if they go down....


NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooo...

>>37864042
The list was a first step. Darth Vader has altered the bargain.

why don't they move on tor? or freenet

>>37864054
wat

>>37863956
>Majority of torrent sites hosted out of the US

>>37863754

youre an idiot. how do you think naruto got so popular? free fantranslations exposed the manga outside of japan. /co/ is the best example nobody buys the shitty comics but ppl read it and DCs volumes are selling

If you honestly think using #lurk or using scanlator sites is superior to having one website with the reading list and bookmark feature (the part that made MT god tier), you're a masochist.

In all fairness, I will probably buy twice the manga I have been. Maybe thrice once life kicks in.

>>37864081
Did you even read the thread? It's already in effect, the site is a dud now there is literally nothing left reading on it.

it'll be annoying if they drive scanlators completely to ground into fucking irc onry.

fucking ACTA
fucking joe biden
fucking HOPE&CHANGE i can believe in durp.

>>37864054
Online readers ruined online readers? Well, sure, that's right. But without online readers we wouldn't have online readers, now would we?

>>37864081
I feel with you, bro.

Great, now I'll need to make a list of all the manga I actually care about and check the scanlators for updates myself.

>>37864137
>how do you think naruto got so popular?
By airing on Cartoon Network

>>37864156

Nope, it'll be fucking awesome.

>>37864081
I blame whatever that shitty site was that thought it was a good idea to put out a paid iPad app

The Great Age of Pirates is coming to an end. Now it's back to sailing the IRCs

#lurk and scanlator sites are the only right places to get manga. Shit sites like MangaToshokan and mangafox only attract troubles from publishers and idiots.

So, when will online manga sites will start moving their servers outside the US?

Host them in Russia, China or some place where laws on piracy are less strict.

>>37864156
not all scanlation sites are in the USA, not to mention the amount of effort required to mole one's way into finding hundreds of scanlators.

>>37864222
that nigger said he was for network neutrality. I guess we forgot niggers are all liars. I didnt vote for anyone, i wanted Hillery.

>>37864217
That's irrelevant.

So let me get this straight.
This is how it usually goes down:

a) Site X gets the axe;
b) /a/non is sad, starts making threads to bitch about it;
c) Site Y opens;
d) /a/non is happy, starts making threads to share the joy;
e) Site Y gains popularity;
f) Site Y gets too popular and is eventually shut down;
g) Repeat;

Can't you guys just learn to use BakaUpdates + IRC instead of hopping on every fucking online-viewing train there is?

Now where will I get my Loli Bund fix...

no faggot naruto was popular before cartoon network.

WHERE AM I SUPPOSED TO READ BERSERK NOW?

>>37864222
>implying any politician who could pay for a presidential campaign isn't really a corporate shill

>>37864202
Mangaurine doesn't even fucking keep the chapters they translate, they keep fucking 3 of them and then they had the app, that site is a fucking blight on the Manga reading community and is the reason we're being targeted in the first place.

I'm not exactly shocked, but i'm a liitle irritated. Now I'm going to have to find another way to read Nana to Kaoru.

well, looks like its time to switch over to actual Chinese cartoons and comics

no updated list of mangas removed?

i dont even remember half the shit im reading, thats why i have the reading list.

FUUUUU

>>37864305
Or you know, the Netherlands or Switzerland where you don't have to worry about a scary Government in case they decide to give a fuck.

>>37864307
>implying network neutrality has anything to do with piracy

thespectrum still chugs on.

Guess its time to start downloading whatever they don't have though.

>>37863903
No, they said they wouldn't remove series because their advertisements wanted them to (18+ stuff). They never said they wouldn't remove series if asked by the publishers, in fact I think they even said that is the only reason they would remove something.

I think this song is in order:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fw5acgqIHQE

Well, it's happening /a/...it's all TUMBLING DOWN TUMBLING DOWN TUMBLING DOWN!

Delicious readerfag tears.

I will only become asspained if somehow mangaupdates gets taken down, since they only function as a directory to where the newfags ought to go to find their magma.

I'd been flipping between Toshokan and several scanlation/downloading sites.

Like other have said, I like getting a look at something before I save 2 gigs of it to my hard-drive.

And for those who've never been to a download site for manga, their communities can be just as shitty as an online reader.Deal with it.

Looks like my yearly pledge to learn any asian language just got real. I'm just going to bypass this bullshit altogether.

>>37864307
Network neutrality isn't being violated here.

Neutrality and piracy are related but not directly.
When an ISP wanted to charge for GB's used or restricted speed to those using P2P, that was neutrality being violated.

Protecting copyright is neither for or against neutrality.

Obama's often forgotten vice president biden though he's a hardcore dog of the copyright lobby groups. He sucks RIAA cock.

>>37864303
MT was convenient because I could check out new manga or browse randomly until I found something good. I guess /a/ could start a list of good manga, but what are the odds of that happening?

>>37864328
No, because a good site like mangatoshokan (was ;_;) is far, far more convenient. Obviously we'll fall back to bakaupdates, but how can you not understand that we don't like it when a way better solution disappears.

Sure, I could get warm water by heating it manually over a fire, but I sure as hell would bitch if my central heating went out.

>>37864328
Mangatoshokan was around the entire time, it just wasn't as well know.

>>37864137
So you're a narutard and think that a shitty manga like naruto should be popular all over the world. Your argument is pretty much invalid.

>>37864340

WHY ? WHY? WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

>>how do you think naruto got so popular?
>By airing on Cartoon Network
by being a shounen intended for 4-14 year old boys that nigras and weeaboos in america love.

oh, and they read those naruto mongas for free as well, laying in the aisles of book store, leaving greasy smudges, bent spines and their fingerprints imprinted in chocolate (or whatever the fuck they're eating) on those actual physical books which reduces their value and likelihood of being purchased by an actual consumer.

Until they rid the world of poverty they will never rid it of piracy either, I haven't bought anime or manga in my life and video games in years but its still what I spend most of my time on, don't intend to start any time soon either.

Fuck them for making things more complicated though.

I miss function like the scabgroup choosing ...
other site doesn't have it

>>37864094

Here's the real question about the change in direction: Who really reads Chinese and Korean manga?

>>37864871

Baka-Updates itself is not breaking any laws, so unless they actually change what piracy means, then you're golden.

As for the actual chapters, at the last possible scenario, shit like anime and manga goes back into the depths of the internet, irc's and others

>>37864871
mangaupdate doesn't actually host any manga, it only serves as a directory, so it should be safe. And #lurk, well, learn to irc, newfag.

Yes, how dare they move in on websites that are hosting manga that may already licensed in the U.S., thus giving them an entire series for free so that they can decide whether they want to have it for free or drop the money on it.

Manga licensors in the U.S. have the right to defend their IPs. Don't like it? Too bad.

Once the issue copyright and piracy becomes important enough, the US will impose laws on other countries by force. Either they will force other countries to establish harder laws by using contracts (the existing international copyright comes from the US too!), or they'll use more "forceful" methods. I mean, the US already invaded other countries for oil.

Alright, so, I've used XDCC before and I have an account at #lurk and I got in the server with nickserv and whatnot...where do I go from there?

Are there any kinds of notifications for the series that I marked as favorites? Do I just have to search for them on packlists every now and then to check for udpates?

But not all anon. You're seriously going to think that someone would servers in those countries? Why would they do something as illogical as that?

>>37865151
What about manga that isn't licensed? they've taken some of those off too

That's what you get you fucking pirates. It won't be long now until they shut down everything and you'll have to buy your shit like I do.

>>37864456
good job faggot. you completely ignore my arugment and call me a narutard. i believe i win.

>>37865290
That's not funny.

>>37865269
Japanese publishers are at the core of this, apparently.

I'm glad I told the proper authorities about this site so you motherfuckers would learn the meaning of "No free lunch." How does it feel to be fucked so hard you'll never recover? Hahaha.

>>37865249

Somehow I think every person from libfags to christfags would march on Washington if that happen.

i'm sorry ;_;

>>37865350
>Implying they didn't already know about it.

>>37865243
Holy shit suddenly manga...manga everywhere

Okay so http://www.mangaupdates.com will tell me whats released, when and by whom. Then how do I get the acutal chapter, go to that scanlators web site and download off of irc?

>>37864137

That's all good and well, but what about NOW, with Naruto being one of the single best-selling manga in the U.S., only a few volumes shy of having caught up to the Japanese release, and people are STILL reading the scanlations? There's a limit to the credibility of the "it creates a fanbase" argument, and with people actively scanning the U.S. volume, that argument goes down the drain.

>>37865290

lololol never gonna happen, faggot.

>>37864516
Why aren't there any sites hosted there if it's so superb?
Somebody should get his arse out the wagon and fix something.
yeahliketotally.

>>37865414
an hero

>>37865243
Hardly anyone uploads manga to TT, its mostly all porn

I'm pretty close to giving up Japanese Manga, at least Veritas is still here... though Vinland Saga, Holyland, Yotsuba... all gone... good luck Japan in your conquest to stop lousy foreigners from reading your Manga.

>>37865414
If the scanlators supply DDLs link then just go to their site, otherwise power up your IRC client, connect to the server, join the channel and use the xdcc bots.

i cannot fucking believe it. hardcore-warez pages are still available and those fuckers are chickening out when there´s a single fucking c&d letter in the mail.

Also someone has a mt backup by any chance?

Not only for comics and cartoons, also for movies, software, books, anything. And in the age of the internet, this will become more and more important. If there's a country that consistently denies copyright laws, it will get under severe pressure.

>>37865414
They usually offer DDL, see link

What the fuck?

Is #lurk like the god-tier of place I can find everything I want easily?

You guys advertise it like its the best thing since 4chan.

Holy shit.

tl;dr: I don't know how to use IRC

>>37865572
>Is #lurk like the god-tier of place I can find everything I want easily?

Yes.

>>37865406
Yep- back to the future

>>37865572
lurk the fuck more then

They still have Banana no Nana, who cares?

If publishers think they can stop illegal reading of their published manga then they must be fully retarded.

>>37865620
I used to know how to use IRC. I lurk on /a/ and see no threads talking about it.

>>37865056

HUEHEUEUEHEEUUEHEAUAEHAEUAHAEUAEHAEUAHAUAHAEUAEAEHAUE

>>37865572
you really have no idea what you're talking about, do you.

>>37865547
>Wordpress-group.

Srsly, DDL's a bitch for us scanlators.

>>37865513
Cry moar faggot.

back to creating countless mini sites throughout the world to continue what the big sites used to do

Hey guys, fakku is down too.

No more delicious online doujins for you now either.

Fuck this shit. I'm Ecuadorian, and the only people who license manga in South America are in Argentina. Though their releases are good, the mangas they tend to license are crappy and by the time they arrive to Ecuador, they are quite expensive.

Seriously, this is complete rubbish. Let me have my precious scanlations.

Well looks like the next chart /a/non has to make is a fucking irc tutorial...
And by this I mean I better start learning
If shit starts hitting the fan like this, I'll have to learn to use in case the actual translator sites get taken down

>>37865418
>>37865418
So what about now? That's not the original argument in the first place.

Besides, even TODAY it's still better. Readers are exposed ahead of time and tend to buy the volumes later.

Take the example from /co/. They actually don't have LOL BUY! shit going around. DC comics and /co/ are guilty of this all the time. They get scanlations and free stuff, yet still buy it because they enjoyed the volume. Batman R.I.P. was the highest selling volume EVEN WITH pirated scans.

Just because YOU don't buy manga, doesn't mean other people won't.

>>37865186

...So? I honestly don't get the big deal about being 3-4 volumes behind. So what if we're still on volume 11 and the 11s are reading vol. 20? Where's the problem with that?

>>37865646
no, but they're weeding out the lazy pirates who has no job and money to buy their manga

>>37865167
>Implying you aren't downloading shit one page at a time when you read online.

>>37865752
Wait. back up a sec, Batman died?

>>37865696

>go to #lurk
>create account
>click 'new releases'
>nothing is there
Fuck, to think I've been here 4 years and cannot even work this simple task out. I am ashamed.

The best part of Mangatoshokan was being able to just type in whatever the hell /a/ was talking about into the search box and sample it immediately without having to slog through Google results or scanslator blog archives for old releases. That convenience is gone now.

what is the website that allows you to view much older websites that may not be there anymore?

>>37865269

Japan has the right to protect their IPs, no matter how tyrannical it may be.

I don't like it, either--it means I can't watch Kamen Rider without importing DVDs, which sucks ass, but thems the ropes.

>>37865812
He's been wiped from present existence for like a year now, he's going through time

There is only one isp you can trust now days; http://serioustubes.org/

Please without free scans I would never of heard of the following series.

Ikkitousen
Yomeiro's Choice
Nana to Kaoru
Hayate the Combat Butler
Medaka Box
Beezelbub
And a shitload others.

This Holy Crusade against manga will go well, I can feel it.
I mean, it worked with music, right?
No one pirates music anymore nowadays, after all.

>>37865747
same here. never used IRC a day before in my life, but if the last of the decent sites go down, i'll have to learn.

>>37864679
>>37864781
>>37863751

dont use CdisplayEX it suck

use Mangameeya it has freaking rezize filter for those image that are too big or too small and bunch of other feature

>>37865752
eh, western releases have their own time schedule. To get to the current arcs in most manga that are licensed, it would take months and by then it would be months behind again.

atleast for comics you don't really wait forever for them to appear in stores after reading.

>>37865730
>>37865730

Go to check
It's actually down

guys...I'm scared

>>37865785
So what? It still is way faster than downloading a ENTIRE FUCKING VOLUME with a shit internet.

Specially when you only want to read a chapter or two.

>>37865920
IRC is actually simple. Just learn a few commands and there you go.

So, how soon before they start trying to attack 4chan for when people post scans?

>>37865915
>medaka box

>>37865906
Oh the irony.

FUCKING FAGGOTS. A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO THERE WEREN'T ANY ONLINE READERS, AND THERE WEREN'T ANY PROBLEMS WITH PUBLISHERS EITHER.

The sort of readers they brought in were the retarded and selfish who don't give a fuck about the fan-community. Luckily they are too stupid to know how to overcome the problem (as witnessed here 'haow do I gets my mango naow?!? Halp mi!!)'. Natural selection at it's finest.

>>37865903
Why is he going through time?

brb, turning the internet hate machine on.

Well, looks like the manga industry outside of Japan is about to flatline, with the exception of people buying Naruto Volumes.

hell, the Bleach translated manga is so far behind it's behind the dubbed anime.

>>37865963
>A chapter or two
>Of a volume
>Of an ongoing series

>>37865963
I read way too many manga series to download everything. Plus who wants to pay at least $9.99 PLUS tax for one volume?

Ohai u oldfags, newfags, whateverfagz. check out this new ca/m/wh0re site ful of russians: http://u5l.de/jb Best is, it is 4 free

>>3939

>>37865918
Funny thing... people are still pirating.

And people buying only buy the songs they hear on the radio. Albums are not selling at all. iTunes is selling great with 1 song a piece.

the beggining of the end

first they came for the manga, anime is next
