anime

I mean, the entire reason "stealing" is considered wrong is it takes away from a legal market

so his first point about not watching if it does not exist in your region fails that

because there is no market in their region

also man this guy is insane

I get angry at 5 second ads

Any ad that isn’t immediately skippable id hell

having to skip ads is hell

the anti piracy people for anime are just retards

Ads are aids

no one should pay for a subscription to an anime service until a legitimate service can at least match sites like 9anime in quality

crunchyroll is shit

no one should pay for a subscription to an anime service until a legitimate service can at least match sites like 9anime in quality

This essnetially

And pozzed

I think its fine now but if there existed a GOOD service

you could pay for

Piracy is 100% a problem of poor serives

I do not pirate games because steam is good

crunchyroll has like 30 trackers

spyware site

I do not think I'm morally obligated to pay for digital reproductions of media, call me a communist for that view

but it's really what I think

if you are arguing against media preservation your opinion doesnt matter

But yeah this arguement comes up all the time from some crunchyroll shill

and it always annoys me

I don't think there is a system I would pay for

I'll be honest

Crunchyroll is what you get when you combine japan's variety of gay with america's

The places where I think they could add value, are so few and far between

oh lmao

this is some va

no wonder their opinion is bad

smaller then cinny

That’s about average height in japan

No big deal

artists, actors, writers and musicians make most of the idiotic takes

its a westerner rusp

I feel like I'm more radical than most people are on that, I just can't wrap my head around how digital reproduction of media

can be theft

Is that a male

I was reading what you wrote Pika

this va has played almost nothing I have seen

I think you can steal something if you do not have permission for reproduction. I also just think there is no ethical reason not to reproduce digital media if you want to

basically I view it as stealing conceptually but you shouldn't care

theft of something physical and finite, makes sense

you're depriving someone of something

I am going to go steal infinite series

it's wrong

Watching most anime is immoral in and of itself

this is the only role from the va I recognize

not that I watched index dubbed lol

Is this va a femoid

yes

Then her opinion doesn't matter regardless of height

That argument is weird

That essentially means all digital media has no value

Spooky's legal opinions should just be disregarded

If he says something sensible it's incidental

Rusp, I don't get how it can have value,

You only think this because you're talking about modern anime, which has zero value

ok, let's not talk anime then

I don;t think digital music has value in and of itself, I think paying for digital albums on bandcamp or wherever is insane

Spotify, Pandora, etc. add vaue through their cataloging of music

>not buying the moody bidoofs album

and the apps they keep updated

See, I don't give two shits if you pirate something, but if everyone did it the creators would be fucked over

Pretty much

I can monetarily support an artist/band I like, but paying for digital reproductions of your work

doesn't make sense to me personally

This is what's called prisoner's dilemma, right

you say that, but I think I spend more money on games/music/anime than anyone here

Because you’re one of like 2 people out of school

I pirate a shitload of games, I don't buy them out of some moral obligation, I buy them when Steam adds value I spend money on music streaming because it adds value, etc.

you also drop 5k in dogecoin for a meme

Because you're 57 years old

you are not the virtue of economic sensibility

I can't fundementally get on board with charging for digital access to digital goods

First they get you to agree with them a little

Then they start arguing for legal cp

"it's just digital media guys, it has no inherent impact on the world"
