Nobody. You have your ways and he has his.
If he's pleased with what he's doing then there's no reason for change.
My reply might be disappointing but don't worry.
You'll soon be flooded by the many "straming sucks" /a/nons.

You're right. But streaming does suck.

Streaming is getting more and more tolerable lately. I used to be subtitle/subgroup autist but I just honestly mostly watch HorribleSubs now.

Streaming is shit but enforcing your ways onto others is also shitty.

B-but Streaming is faster anon

chinese cartoons are shit

you're both in the wrong

First, I'd like to comment that if you're watching things in 1080p, it better be on a large television. Secondly, most 1080p pre-dvd releases are just upscales.

As far as trying to convince your friend to see the light, most streams will only get up to 720p if they're lucky. Aside from the fact that loading videos can be troublesome, and not all websites will have what you're looking for, what do you do when the power's out? If your friend is concerned about legality, the sites streaming are even more at risk than someone torrenting an anime. If he's that paranoid, he can delete them when he finishes.

Streaming would be fine if:
a. it were actually at a decent quality. But we're getting there
b. content would be guaranteed to be always up

I fear the day when I won't be able to find what I can find now. Streaming doesn't allow you to archive.

People used the same arguments for using Hadena, anon.

Is it worth it to get 1080 for TV anime though? Isn't 1080p just upscales?

I mean, it's a different story for BDrips of course, but for currently airing ones, 720p is enough.

Both of you. Streaming is inferior in every way but downloading 1080p releases is also retarded.
