Bcuz of the filesharing crack down, i just stream the animes and download them using internet download manager.

[st2l]

I use host links most of the time. Only if I can't find a specific anime anywhere else, then I use torrents.

[Michelaxx]

I always use TorrentB.
Nuff said.

1. Drop torrent into ru.
2. Download off server.
3. 10MB/s .
4. Profit??

So yeah, Mainly through server if anything torrent.
Filehost's for me has always been a no go, Speed is too slow and I have to abuse my internet somehow...

I actually do the same thing, but I don't even understand why. I mean I could just grab it straight to my own computer, it's not like rutorrent can magically pull more seeds out of it's ass.

I guess it's more of a way to prepare a series for instant downloading later on. No need to leave utorrent open on my own machine.

The server I download from isn't mine the seedbox itself isn't mine either.
It's not that I don't have slow internet but I'm just lazy therefore I just download from the server

source download anime:
1. torrent
2. torrent
3. torrent
lol.. lol..

[Tennouji]

I download like a boss:

• Direct Downloads via debrider/rapidleech
• Torrent Leeching (leech 10-20 torrents @ bakabt/nyaa)
• XDCC (bots are slow? then leech 10 different bots at the same time, on different channels)

Double all of the above, I use those methods on my 2 connections (it could have been 3, but I don't want to use the third one)

Lastly, AFK after setting the things up. Then I go.

I have found an option that has not been stated at this stage. My work colleague is also an anime addict so I copy my anime from him in top quality because he watches his anime on a 106cm T.V. Watching anime in 1080p quality is fucking amazing in everyway possible! He is currently getting me Durarara!

[Tennouji]

Haha, I only keep anime in 2 categories = best quality and my own mini-mkv encodes. Of course if it's a blu-ray it should be 1080 for me. I don't want to re-encode a 720 input into another 720p mini-mkv. 1080p inputs do always ensure a better downscaled quality.

We also have this "data trading sessions" every once in a while at our college org. And I'm known as the "Quality Freak" on the group. We show our own copies of the series, and votes which HQ and/or LQ will be kept, and which future downloads are to be done, and who's proposing to download for each series. Others are deleted. That's our org's healthy anime compilation goes.
