Yeah, I do that too, but sometimes the subtitles are really horrible. I might as well get fansubs, since they're a little better.

aye, thats why i have resorted to dl it, (well my cousin) he can get a whole series in about a week (26 eps or so) but he goes for the perfect quality, full screen, clear picture type o stuff and he burns it for me..ahh..god bless em

and i totally understand why not many people are really into anime, its an expensive hobby

[merylsilverburg]

Even more so in Japan....man, those prices will be the end of me!

[BowevelJoe]

aye, ill mail you a list of the mess i have and you can pick some stuff and i will mail it to ya, it all plays on windows media player, full screen blah blah blah, its all subbed too, i hate english dubbed, after watching subs for so long it kinda grew on me, and english makes it way corny too and jokes dont make sense alot of the time...but thats just me eh?

Uh-oh....windows media player no can do. I have it, but there's no sound coming out! I dunno why! I only have Quicktime and Real Player that works, but you can't play on those. But, I do have a different media player that plays stuff like that. It was installed for me by my parent's friend. I'm able to play VCD's on there. I used to like watching dubs, but then I started watching Rurouni Kenshin fansubbed, because even though it was licensed, I couldn't wait for the entire thing, 'cause I was in love with this series and needed to watch more! So, I saw the subbed version, and I love it. Also, what brought me towards subbed more was the Ayashi no Ceres dub. Omigod, everyone, please beware of that. Get the subbed at all costs, even if you can't read fast enough. The dub will literally burn your ears. Take my word for it.

A great way to get cheaper anime is to either get it from Ebay. Like Fortune said, buying it from Hong Kong is usually very cheap, and is still good.

I also have an anime server on a program called Hotline with a buddy so I dub onto tapes from his computer using video-out cables and it works really well.

[BowevelJoe]

aye, and god bless people like Reid too, them and there servers lol, but you will probably need to get a divx player, (found on morphues) to play the files because they are DVD rips(thats why the quality is so good lol) but just get them off of morphues, and maybe it will come with a player too, theres no telling what you can get off of morphues, i dl like 3 diff codecs just to be sure i got the right one and ive been able to play any audio file no matter how hacked up it is, but then i have a virtual dubbing prog too that patches up bad video files and plays them as clear as it is possible to play the thing. But i could e-mail you the progs, as for the anime, 56k modem, 80-120 megs per file, girl you must be crazy! (ahh im messing with ya on that, i just dont want to spend a week online to send one file lol)

I'm downloading Escaflowne episode 15 right now on a 56k on Imesh. Will it ever be done?

And I like subtitled anime the best also. The english vopices butcher the show. There are the exeptions though, like Cowboy Bebop, Outlaw star, and most of the voices in Evangelion I think have better English voices. But that's my opinion.

I can't buy anything online, and I'm not alowd to download anything off the internet, so it hard for me to get my anime on the net without my parents finding out.

All I can do is cough up the $31.87 at On Cue and get5 all of my anime on DVD.

Kills the dough.

Happy Hardcore its great music ,,,, but it seems to be un popular as it used to be i dont want it to go .They stopped selling it in shops around here aswell

[Reid]

"Archive" is also really great music, but I don't know where to find their CD to buy.
(Ebay?)

I had to burn my copy, from a burn, from a burn, from a burn, from a burn, etc.

:p

[BowevelJoe]

lol, thats why its good to have friends that are into the same things you are, you get volume 1, you get 2, ill get 3, you get 4, and i usually am the one that rips them all.. ah well, saves quite a bit o moolah eh

[Reid]

Or friend's with diverse tastes too.

Then you can burn CDs and discover a band that you wouldn't have, because you wouldn't want to spend money on something that might not be good.

:p
