anime

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

I don't think I quite get your defenition for theft

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

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"

do you not hold similar views on trademarks and intelectual property Gent?

I suspect you think 70 years is bullshit

Not really, I hate the chinese

I just think it’s stupid to make all digital goods as valueless

Yes, fuck disney also

Some things can only be made or sold online

But disney's exploiting the rules

nothing should have intelectual property ever

It's just unfairly enforced laws

if someone else can make your product better then you then get better

Rusp, I think there are plenty of ways to make money off digital goods, but I think digital media cannot reasonably be worth anything

music dlc

Pika, can you sell me your moody bidoof album?

you have to pay to add instruments to your soundcloud song

can you?

Get me tired enough I will do covers of all the songs

and sell it to you

I feel like you'd buy it

put that aside, you have legally purchased Rob's music album off band camp

He did?

you have a zipped folder of all his songs
