I like how people who leave comments on youtube aren't all fucking mean mindless dorks and can be normal, if they seem stupid it's because they just don't give a shit about commenting the way you people do, and their tastes tend to be more palatable

Because it's the best.

I was going to read that graphic but then I remembered I haven't streamed an anime since stage6 died.

>>45612651
Then delete them when you are done. It's not that fucking hard.

Look at the fucking picture, I made it just for you.

I use utorrent, but I have to say; the anon that cared about the way other ppl watch anime enough to make that image is a massive faggot.

>>45612598
4chan just pretends to be cool with all their slang, but it's so limited and imitative that all they are is fools
I notice people on youtube tend to more aware of double entendres and other things that make entertainment interesting

Because they are either technologically inept, or don't know any better.

it's easy to find old releases by DDL with sites
like Hsbsitez

For all intensive purposes, it's a doggy dog world out there, so stop being such a pre-Madonna. People like you are a diamond dozen. You could of been someone, but you through it all a weigh.

I only stream at work during my down time there.

OP autism is at full power

Is it bad to stream just the first episode of something, to see if it's worth downloading and watching?

I torrent just to have the content organized and present whenever, stream eps till It's done and my jdownloader is usually busy doing other shit so I don't bother with that.

>>45612902

>didn't get the joke

I stream because it's simple, I don't have to wait, and I'm impatient. I don't want better quality or any of that shit, I'm a normalfag.
Some episodes I'll download, but I don't give a shit either way.

>>45612990
Just download the first episode, and delete it if you don't fucking like it. Downloads take like 1-2 mins.

I stream because I don't want any of my friends snooping on my computer to find any of my anime or the torrent files that I either forgot to delete or haven't watched yet. I also don't know how to watch it any other way.

what if you schools fucking internet doesnt let you torrent or downloads take 1 hour+ for 1 fucking episode? what then?

>>45613080
>I also don't know how to watch it any other way.
What if I fucking teach you how to do it the right way?

http://green-oval.net/cgi-board.pl/a/thread/45525234
This thread already happened a couple of days ago. And very likely several more times in the past.

I only stream the first 3 episodes of a show that I think might be good. If they have me wanting more then I download the series.

This system works for me most of the time, and if the series looks like its going to be shit I've only wasted roughly an hour and a half.

>>45613096
Learn that torrenting isn't the only way to download.
Also, if your internet is shitty enough to have DL speeds be shit, then streaming would also be slow as fuck.

>>45613078
>most anime episodes are around 200 megabytes for 720p
>it takes around 2-3 mins

not everyone can afford a download speed higher than around 200 KB/s

OP's an asspie, definitely an asspie.

>>45612513

Because I know it causes butthurt elitists (like yourself OP) to go through the work of creating a chart and thinking of an argument.

because sometimes it's hard to find working downloads for older anime

>>45612793
Yep, i can't take this much.... my limits have been surpassed.

Most people who stream say "I don't want to waste the hdd space or the time to download."

They're just too dumb to realize you're just downloading a shitty version of the video that deletes itself for them

>>45613080
Password Protection.

Use it faggit.

>>45613096
Why the fuck are you even watching anime in school?

Do that shit at your own place.

Why do you give a fuck what other people do when it can't possibly affect your life? Quit acting like a 3 year old.

>>45613053
>doesn't reali-REPORTED

anyway, my brother used to stream Bleach at home and I didn't immediately put a stop to it. When I came back this weekend I found him streaming Naruto, dubbed, on youtube.

How do I fix this? I tried making fun of him but then he told me he caught me watching My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

DDL can do the same thing but we have to fucking download shit you cunt. Most people stream because we don't want to have to go through downloading a bunch of fuckass programs and updating them constantly.

While I appreciate the offer, I probably wouldn't do it, again for the first reason. Also, I can never tell who's trying to troll when talking about how to watch anime. I also don't think I'd be able to watch it the way you teach because I have a Macbook my parents bought for me 4 years ago and I'm too poor to buy a new PC.

I do everything wrong.

what if your at work or on a school comp? you cant just fucking download it to a computer that isnt yours. what then?

because I'm a lazy faggot

>>45613195
It's hard to find a working stream for older anime.
>>45613175
200 kb/s is actually pretty slow for many people
if you can't get above or close to it, you shouldn't even be on the internet.

because I'm watching one piece and I don't feel like looking for torrents every week just to watch one
episode

Who fucking cares? Personal preferences etc.

i stream because funimation puts most of their shit on youtube in it's entirety, allowing me to watch it legally and support two companies i've got friends working for (google and funi.)

megauploads, hotfile, rapidshare, etc... reduce your speeds to a CRAWL if your not a premium user rather than streaming 8-10 minutes of an anime at a time which would take about 5 minutes to pre-buffer

>>45613263
you don't watch anime there, dumbass.

Streamfag here. Sincere question to OP and people like him:

Why do you care?

Am I somehow actively ruining anime by streaming it in my privacy?

You know I was the one who made the chart in OP's image. I didn't write any of that shit. It wasn't meant to convince people to stop streaming. It was meant to tell them they were idiots.

If people want to stream and be retards, let them. It's just an idiot gauge.

What the fuck am I reading ? I dont have megaupload account and few days ago I was downloading ps3 game at 1,1mb/s.

stop-liking-what-i-don't-like.jpg

I don't really mind other people streaming...unless they post screenshots from the stream.

>>45613337
You are, because going to streaming sites makes the site owners profit off of stolen material. If you use shit like crunchyroll, 99% of the money that they get goes to site maintenence and 1% goes to japan. Plus you are getting a shitty product.

I only stream because my ISP puts a ridiculous bandwidth cap on connections.

I download 480p because I can't afford a new processor.

If someone has a low internet speed and isn't using torrents, it's even more confusing to me than if they had an average speed. streaming will take just as long, if not longer, as downloading, and you have to start over again if your internet cuts out, unlike with torrents or xdcc.

>>45613300
fuck, it's like I'm really browsing /v/. Take this shit back there.

>>45613470
720p isn't even all that hard to play.
Even so, 480p downloading is still better than streaming.

>>45613453
If the Japanese companies are getting such a raw deal then why do they continue to license their shows to Crunchy Roll?

There are four justifiable reasons to stream:

1) Deciding whether an anime is good or not and streaming the first episode or 2.

2) No one's seeding, all the direct downloads have been shut down, and it's on hulu.

3) Your ISP is being a bitch about torrenting and throttling the shit out of you and you can't find any DDLs.

4) Your computer is unavailable/broken and you're streaming the episodes on youtube on your Wii or other console/portable device. I'll admit I did this for Lucky Star(back in the days of being an underageb&), and I watched The Melancholy of Haruhi-Chan Suzumiya on youtube via my iPod.

Outside of these, if you're streaming, what the fuck are you doing?

It's funny.

You can always tell if an internet poster is socially retarded by his writings.

Social rejects typically attempt to appear intellectually superior by insisting their tastes and opinions make them smart.

Preferring downloading or DDL to streaming doesn't mean you're smarter. You're simply an average person with elitist personality.

I was going to make my own thread, but while this one's up...

/r/ing the "how to download animu" pages (with CCCP setup, etc.)

>>45613528
To stop the other streaming sites from making money off their content.

And sadly, the plan is not working...

>>45613556
1 and 3 are not good reasons.

>>45613584
This one?

I see it like there are two paved roads, one covered in broken glass. Streamfags like to through aside their shoes and walk across the broken glass, and then yell when people tell them that there is a perfectly good road just off to the right, since they like what they're doing. But no, why should we tell them what's best for them? Fuck it, let them suffer.

Why the fuck do the fags who downloads anime give a fucking crap about streamfags?
Why the fuck go through the fucking trouble to make a fucking image with text pointing out shitfuck about stream and its dissapointments? Who the fuck in this fucking world cares?
For fuck sake, jesus... fuck.

>>45613556
>1) Deciding whether an anime is good or not and streaming the first episode or 2.
New shows are always out faster through downloads. If you aren't dedicated to a show, why wait for it like you are.

>2) No one's seeding, all the direct downloads have been shut down, and it's on hulu.
You're being lazy, and idiot, or both, since there is nothing on hulu or any other streaming site that wasn't grabbed from a groups release.

>3) Your ISP is being a bitch about torrenting and throttling the shit out of you and you can't find any DDLs.

Torrents or not, you have to wait just as long anyway. Again, you're either lazy or stupid saying you can't find shit. It's easier to find downloads than reliable streams.

As for four, I laugh at the method, but I'm not familiar with encodes for portability at all, since I have a laptop like a sane person.

>>45613663

Did you just seriously imply you know what's best for other people?

You're a pretentious retard. That's all there is to it.

>>45613797

Psst, retarded moralfag, here's a secret:

Watching anime for free is illegal either way, streaming or downloading. And don't even try to pull the ''lesser of the two evils'' bullshit. Doesn't matter if streaming sites make money or not.

>mfw no one ITT bothers supporting the companies releasing their shows

>>45613776
Yes I did. People who stream generally do so because it's easier for them to go and find a site that has a stream instead of learning how to download something. If they really cared about having to do minimal work, you can set up rss feeds or bots in irc to download your shit for you as soon as it hits. They really just don't want to learn something new, and then bitch that what they're doing is superior anyway.

>>45613893
>Supporting gooks.
No.

I don't even stream,and you faggots who actually GIVE a shit about who streams are pants on head retarded.
Say anime is food.What streamfags are saying is that their meal isn't the greatest but it's good enough for them.I understand 80% of the arguments streamfags are making in these threads are horribly stupid and they don't know any better,but you niggers need to just stop giving a fuck.If you tell streamers that it's stoopid and gay!11,you're not going make any difference,you're just making yourself look like a stupid asshole.

>>45613911

I don't know about other streamfags, but I'm not particularly claiming to be superior.

>>45613889
Nope.

Streaming is still wrong way to pirating anime.

You fail for not realizing that.

Kindly GTFO from /a/.

Better question.
Why the fuck is a such a big deal to you how other people watch anime?

>>45614061
Answer: >>45613797

Because I'm just going to delete it anyways and it's easier to find it streamed and it somehow takes longer to torrent than to stream, often because of HIGHER QUALITY

For instance, I would have been waiting a couple weeks to download Utawarerumono but I streamed it in like three days

I hate having to delete all this shit that I'm downloading all the time and basically all of the anime I've actually been downloading has been a pain to manage given that I'm using a laptop

This is the worst thread

I'm chill with people watching the official streams. The companies make an effort to offer legal ways to watch new shows and create at least some revenue. I myself have gotten accustomed to downloading this shit but I'll raise my hat to those who choose the legitimate options.

There are no excuses for illegal streaming sites, however.

I stream anime because the mere thought of saving even one episode of some moe garbage anime like K-On! on my computer makes me feel like my computer will contract AIDS and I can never touch it again. Even if I can easily delete it, just knowing I had downloaded it would make me ashamed and want to vomit.

>>45614109
How to DL a batch of episodes:
Set high priority on the first couple of episodes
Once they're done, set high priority on next couple of episodes
Watch the first episode
Repeat with others until all are DLed.

Streamers defense: I don't care about quality
What it means: I don't know how to download anime

Streamers defense: I don't want to download something.
What it means: I don't realize that I am downloading a video file by streaming and am getting lower quality.

>>45614163
Why are you even streaming moeshits if you're ashamed of it in the first place?

>>45614163
And also, streaming is also downloading, technically, albeit in small incremental amounts.

So by your logic, you have already contracted AIDS.

Congratulations!

I'd only stream for a few reason.

1) Preview a show, watch a ep or two before DLing.

2) If I absolutely can't find a DL for it.

3)If I don't care enough for the series to actually save it to me HD in this case Naruto & One Piece.

Hey guys, where's the most reliable place to find the latest torrents?

I'd torrent rather than stream but it's so tiresome to search for the right torrent with subs.

>>45614249
>>45614249
http://tokyo-tosho.net/

>>45614242
SOLUTION:

right-click on file, click delete.

right-click Recycle bin, click empty recycle bin.

>>45614242
>To preview
You can DL and watch in the same amount of time it takes to set up a stream.
>I can't find a DDL
You suck at looking.
>I don't want to save it.
Delete it afterward.

Ultimate argument: "I'm Lazy"

>>45614249

Visit http://www.anilinkz.com/ for the best in streaming there is!

Most streamers have never even heard of TT.

There's no hope for these 12 year old.

because I don't need subs and I want to watch things live or near live

then afterwards I can go to forums and troll people with spoilers

>>45614171

That's great when it actually works.

Not to mention it's more efficient to do it all at once, since it's whatever chunks everyone else has the most of.

Usually it is a very minor speed up, especially on something with a low seed count. Nice try, though.

I personally like Direct Download, because that ceases to really be an issue, but waiting for megaupload can be a pain if there's enough episodes.

It's very much dependent on the situation, but oftentimes streaming is excellent for my purposes (on someone else's computer, want to watch it immediately, want to test the first episode, etc.)

>>45614288

torrents are no longer reliable. Too many spiders and my ISP provider doesn't have backbone

Why wouldn't you? It's a few frames per second, tops. What are you losing out on, a beautiful scenery in your favourite uguu~ animu? Please. Stream it, because anime quality isn't worth bandwith. You know why? Because there is no such thing as anime quality.

>>45614538
>typos everywhere

I'm too lazy to look for DDLs. Streaming happens instantly. I won't regret having to waste time torrenting something if it was shit. If it's good I can torrent it for watching in future.

>doesn't know about IRC/XDCC

>>45614277

>You can DL and watch in the same amount of time it takes to set up a stream.
If a site already has a couple up I'll just watch it there, not every show will DL in 5~30 mins
>You suck at looking.
I said if I absolutely can't find a DL, no Torrents, no Direct Downloads, nothing. Rarely happens but it does happen to that odd Special or and older lesser know series.
>Delete it afterward.
If I'm not gonna save it why DL it in the first place?

I torrent and archive nearly all my anime but those jsut some of the reason I'd ever stream.

I'll be completely honest with you guys, I owe that to you.

1. I am at university and big bad torrents scare me
2. Even if I wasn't at university torrents scare the shit out of me
3. If I wasn't scared of torrents, I'm too retarded to use torrents.

I don't care for video or audio quality, yes i admit i'm stupid.

umad?

i hate threads like that.
Because it is definitely implying that people who watches anime have a great internet connection or tons of free space on their harddrive.
Thats not really the case.
I have a download speed of 30kb/s and have only 4gb free space. Yes of course, i have an external 500GB harddrive to use but that doesn't change the fact that i am always using this to download anime.
Whats the point in downloading terribles episodes like One Piece or Sailor Moon just because you forget how the battle ended and therefore only want to rewatch a significant scene?
I dont give a damn about quality or audio kbs as long as it's not a fucking Kara no Kyoukai BD or other epic DVD-releases.
For these i will gladly use up all my free space but they can be burned into Blu-Ray Discs later and be enjoyed in front of a Home-Cinema Device with Dolby Surround 7,1 Audio SHIT
Do i look like a fucking anime-weabboo-media-library!?

I'll continue streaming and enjoying my shit quality image/audio. In case you didn't know, there are sites that offer HD content. Haters gonna hate.

Nope, I am not being sarcastic. I have a full time job and waiting for anime to download and then watch it fucking blows.

If you're an asspie and enjoy wasting your time downloading anime rather than watching it then do so. If I don't care what you do then why the fuck do you care if I stream?

>>45614623
Torrents aren't the only way to download.
DDL/XDCC

>>45614623
You poor poor bastard...

I'm on University internets and I'm seeding torrents like maaaaaad.

>>45614606

>>45614685

Most Universities are implementing a policy of banning torrents at all costs.

Enjoy it while it lasts braw.

>>45614677

>>45614772
>makes me do it out of spite.
Idiocy on full throttle.

>>45614729
you didn't read me of coruse, right?
If you would, you could at least understand that an episode is between 200mb and 350mb.
I download at the speed of halflight (30kb)
You do the math, I do the raging

(Implying 500GB is nothing compared to 1TB)

Trollololololollllllllllllllll

Here's my /a/ and /mu/ guide to downloading everything you could ever want, for free, even in a college setting.

Torrents:
9 times out of 10, torrents aren't actually blocked on campus. What the school does is block you from downloading files with the .torrent extension. This is extremely easy to get around. You could use magnet links, but nowadays, most sites have a download as .txt option (Bakabt and Nyaa included), which will allow you to download a .torrent as a text file, and simply change the extension to make it work.

"But what if I get served papers"
You won't. You wanna know why? Because unlike film and music, there is no single regulative body that attempts to stop anime piracy. Think of it like this:

Film - MPAA
Music - RIAA
Anime - ?

99.9999% of the time people get served papers, they downloaded movies and music.

>An alternative.
If you're scared, only use DDL. Animetake has pretty much everything released in the past 3 years for DDL, and if you join their forums you can find links for classic series as well.

>Downloading Music
You don't need any special software, or any shifty sites. Downloading high-quality music is extremely simple.

Google this: "album name site:mediafire.com"

Congratulations, you now have every album ever, and will never be served papers.

Quality IS opinion dumbshit; the difference is in the filtering and your personal preference.

>>45614970

Nope, didn't implied anything but the fact that some day the torrents simply won't work.

It just depends on the area where you live.

I don't care if you stream, buy, download, read online, watch with VLC, watch with MPC, read with Cdisplay.


I just don't care what you do. I'll do what I want to do, you do what you want to do.

Never change, /a/

>>45614975

In your opinion, the quality of streams is shit, right? Well, for me the quality is alright.

Do you understand how opinions work? At all?

> /a/

Sigh, why am I even asking such question, specially on 4chan of all places...

mfw he fails to realize the difference between HQ/SQ.

OP's image should include being able to alter aspect ratios. My main monitor isn't letterbox but my cloned 55inch tv that I watch anime on is. If I don't adjust the aspect ratio to 4:3, everything on the 55 is stretched out. Kind of a pain in the ass really.

>mwf he tries to argue what has already been established; video filtering is all preference and therefore opinion.

Guys, let me tell you about Minitheatre.

Small encodes of anime, about 70mb an episode, downloads fairly quickly even with a bad connection.

It's quick, but it's a download.

Should keep both of you happy.
It's slightly above stream quality, and it's a download.
Now fuck off with this nonsense.

>>45615080
Nope that isn't opinion.

That's just going full baka.

>>45612513

Because it takes less effort and I'm too lazy to download.
Plus I rarely find anime worthwhile enough to watch in HQ. Yes, I know this may seem odd to some, but I'm only interested in watching anime in HQ if I genuinely enjoy them.

>>45615143

If it's not opinion, then what is it?

No, "being baka" won't cut it.

Hell, that has nothing to do with it...

>>45615080
>>45615015
You people are idiots. Yes, you can have an opinion about what quality is tolerable. Resolutions are hard numbers though, and fact is, 480p isn't 1080p and never will be. That's an objective fact.

Take into account that most streams are actually around 240p (Some are higher, but they're never good.)

Contrary to what you believe, no one wants to stop you from enjoying your media and force you through some hours long process. We're just trying to help you to BETTER enjoy the media that you enjoy.

>mfw Minitheatre

>help
'LOL NO ANYONE WHO STREAMS IS A MASSIVE FAGGOT WHY WOULD YOU WATCH SOMETHING IN LOW QUALITY DUMBASSES"
I understand that some people like you are trying to help others but everyone else is just forcing their opinions onto streamers.

>mfw I download 60MB encoded X264 MKV files in less than a minute when I don't feel like wasting space for shitty anime

>>45615206

>You people are idiots. Yes, you can have an opinion about what quality is tolerable.

You're mixing facts with opinions and then you go ahead and call people idiots?

Really now?

>>45615206

You try to help people... By constantly rage about the fact that people stream and whine about how much better it is to download, etc, etc?

Nigga people don't want your help. In a way you're as much a nuisance as those Jehova witnesses. Just make the information available (which is constantly done) and leave it at that.

People really won't start downloading HQ anime simply because you are going nuts over it.

I just lol at you "righteous" people.

>>45615195
>I'm too lazy.
7/10. You dullards act like this shit is hard. It isn't.

You search 2 sites for new releases, click download, and then wait for a pop-up to tell you that it's done. You don't have to fuck with any outside programs (other than uTorrent), or any complex settings. You just download a torrent, and wait for uTorrent to tell you it's finished.

You're not lazy, you're retarded. If you can't do this, you could probably never cook something in an oven, because the concept of waiting until something is finished and then opening it is lost on you.

>>45615271
But they won't accept it unless you force it down their brains.

It's like feeding a 3-year old kid.

I'm too lazy to download torrents and stuff. Plus i'm scared of viruses.

That's why I stream

I can watch my anime without an internet connection. That's reason enough for me not to stream.

>>45615206

And here's where you're wrong. The OP is trying to claim that if it isn't the highest of high quality video then it's garbage. Know what that is, friend? That's right.. an opinion. You can try and argue the fact is HQ is better than SQ and you'll be right as rain because one quality is definitely higher than the other. But that doesn't make it better and if you think otherwise that is once again an opinion.

>>45615206
You aren't helping anyone fella, you're just antagonizing people.

Let people do what they want, it doesn't affect you.

>>45615345
You're an idiot if you can't avoid things like that.

I was with you until the last part OP. It's fucking cartoons, for chrissakes, not a life philosophy or something that actually matters like a house or a life partner. Philosophers wouldn't give a shit.

>>45615345
>Thinks he can't get viruses from streaming
>thinks he can get viruses from torrents
Oh boy here we go.

>>45615206
but that's not the most important part of this whole farce.

The important part is a mixture of quality and convenience

Next you'll be telling us the only way to enjoy anime is downloading Coalgirls BD rips with FLAC audio.

>>45615317
If they didn't want help, they wouldn't come into the threads, brag that they stream, and then tell people to prove to them that streaming is worse than downloading. If you need it to be proved to you, you're just looking for excuses to ditch it.

>>45615377
/b/ is one to your right

>>45615345
If your torrent comes with weird .exe that serves no purpose, don't run it. Simple as that.
Also you can get spyware through streams, It's pretty common in fact.

>>45615377
that's why you're not an good-tier otaku.

>>45615421
They're trolling, like most people in here.
