OP here, how about sub vs dub?
>>
>>133972028
I download episodes from KissAnime with subs already written into the video.

My friend records the shows on VCR tapes and I buy them for about 50 cents.

A laptop is not nearly as comfortable for laying in bed.

I can twist and turn anyway I want with my phone without worrying about the laptop balance. I can hold the phone very close to my face which helps for reading subs and getting up close panty shots. Technically I can download anime and use my phone remotely to watch from my computer but I'm a lazy fuck.

I send transcripts of /a/ threads to my Grandma who sews me a tapestry with a different scene represented on each square. If the animation is known to be good she'll knit me a sweater for that particular episode (I have like 50 Kyoani sweaters).

Hardly because of their completely top level tactics never seen before in streaming sites to avoid copyright takedown. They have to go to such lengths because they offer something never really seen before in streaming in that:

- Better streaming quality than CR
- Way better variety in selection, infact just about everything including asian drama
- Downloads for bitrate fags
- All for free with unobtrusive ads

Not to mention how they do much the same for Funimation. Kissanime was taken down apparently a little bit back because of how huge a target they are. Once kiss is ded there is absolutely no reason to stream however.

I stream dubs at CrunchyRoll in 480p.

Impossible, a tablet is only a scaled-up phone with the same (or better) functionality and any windows 10 tablet will be able to do much more than a phone

I said my phone has more functionality then YOUR tablet, not all tablets. Learn how to read. A tablet is too big, I'd rather just use my laptop at that point.

Before simulcasts(and simulcasting ripping) got big, I used to buy DVDs back around the turn of the century. Then they started selling shit for Japan prices like I'm gonna be shelling out that kind of money for cartoons. I got a family to feed, man.

How do you download episodes or entire series from Kissanime? There's some shit I want to put on my external HDD that don't exist or have no seeders on torrent sites, so I'd love to do this instead.

I have a PLEX server that I put my movies, shows, and anime on. Some of it is DVDs that I ripped, some are torrented.

I just wish the anime cataloging was better for PLEX, I have to constantly go in and fix crap with it that I do not have to do on US shows.

Used to download everything, now I stream a lot of current stuff on crunchy. 1080p crunchy looks fine. Then for favorite shows I'll download a bd batch from animebytes with best possible quality.

Watch on an IPS or amoled screen, colors vivid as fuck. Srsly try it.
>>
>>133972791
Exactly.
Why download it when other people will do it for you and post it online
