    I used to be all gung-ho about downloading all teh anime. But then I got a serious ISP warning for a non-anime download.

    2 months have passed since then and now i'm a crunchyroller.(1yr plus membership purchased)


    Times certainly do change. I never thought i'd become the rule follower-type. But I guess having a job helps with that too lol.

    @Nimander You're not the only one. Before I moved into my own place, I used to download/torrent a lot of my anime since my ISP at the time limited the amount of data we could download per month. I had to schedule my downloads during that ISP's Download Zone to not go over. Now that I have moved, streaming is an option and I don't mind paying a small amount to watch anime in a legal fashion. I still DDL the anime not on CR, but it's a lot cheaper than having to buy Blurays.

    Same here but technically I never did download anime, just streamed it illegally but even that has stopped. The last couple on months I've been watching anime on Netflix and Hulu (when I have the time). Recently I got a membership at Funimation thanks to their sweet holiday deal. And yeah, having a job does help

    You should all be ashamed of yourselves! /s
    I haven't watched anime since I started Organic chemistry 2 and a half years ago save for one small stint due to not feeling like I had time and then feeling like I should be doing other things (none is that much more important than watching anime was). I have this problem where if I have brief periods of heavy activity, I feel like I can relax more and thus watch stuff like anime. When stuff to do is much more spread out, I feel like I should be working and thus don't relax as efficiently or enjoyably.

    I find this to be an amusing topic considering this little community of ours was brought together by an illegal streaming site.

    However to go along with the topic, I'm still the same person I was when I started watching anime. The only difference is that now I barely watch anything dubbed. I've never downloaded anime, I have streamed everything I've seen apart from a few titles that I've watched via DVD.
    Sites like CR are horrible to me, I've watched a select few series on it [all being short series] where I've had to sit through 3 minutes worth of ads for 3 minutes worth of anime. I've also encountered region locks on series as well as a huge amount of missing titles that I was curious in watching [eg season 1 of Ippo when they had season 3]. If there was a really good legal site that had everything I wanted on a great player without region locks I'd use it, but that isn't even remotely close to a reality so I'll stick with my streams elsewhere.

    Since I am still the same I can't believe you'd change so easily Nim, I thought you'd put up more of a fight than that.

    Bleh. Not at that you started paying for anime and what not (I don't really care what you do TBH) but at that fact that you said/typed Crunhyroll"er". I hate that whole "I'm a _er!" or I'm a _idian" thing. *cringes*


    Anyway I only download anime since I can't stream it at home and like super said, I mostly watch subbed anime now and I have a thing about paying for subbed anime. I don't mind paying for anime that has a dub though.

    While on the topic of changes, I just can't seem to bring myself to playing any new kind of video game. I may have finally hit the wall as far as gaming goes.

    If we're on the topic of change.

    I'll admit something to you guys.

    The reason I don't come on now is cause I forget the site is here.

    I need to change, man. I've watched maybe 3 anime series this past year, when I set out to watch far more. There was a time when I would watch one after another after another, and then I burned out. I've never been able to rekindle that enthusiasm since. Though largely that might be the cause of life demanding my attention in other areas, and I've became much more of a video game person over the years. Still, I love anime and I don't watch nearly enough of it.
