I knew this long time ago. I like to download first and then buy later if that series/anime is worth watching. I was shocked to see that some "original" Japanese DVD series give credit to fansub groups of the free download sites

Furthermore since there is no one to challege them regarding the license or copyright to their release, there's pretty much no obstacle at all and pretty much easy money.

there's no benefit for us to challenge them because i have checked the price of a japanese series on internet. It's 200 USD ++. How many of us can afford that? I can get a japanese series with RM20 or RM50 (with a beautiful box like moon cake box) at local shop. It's not really original but 'original' though.

So you are essentially paying just for stuff that you yourselves can get for free from the internet... 

Well, I just want to show my support but sigh, too many pirated dvds are sold here......

showing support means buying from the original distributors...
you're not showing support by buying from pirates... basically, you've done nothing that's even close to "support"

yes, i do buy original dvds from anime shops but those aren't even really 'original' at the first place. The subtitle really sucks the big time. In a series, a character can have so many different names due to the bad subtitle. To be honest, it's better to download sometimes.

Now that you know where to purchase original anime medias, there's nothing that can stop you from supporting them. wink.gif

I do purchase online but not always. I don't have credit card so it's a bit difficult for me to purchase online.
