    Something I can't understand. Let's assume someone is going to be naughty and knowingly bootlegs an anime, why not just torrent a quality copy and copy it to a blank DVD? Better yet, torrent a H.D. version, throw it onto your external hard drive, put the hard drive into your usb 360 port and, if you've got a HD t.v., you have a perfect H.D. version anime. O.k, you're still screwing over the industry but at least you're not paying the illegal middleman along the way, and waiting for a delivery. I'm not advocating doing this, it just makes more sense to do this than buy a bootleg if you are going down the illegal road.

    I think you under estimate the laziness of people in general. What you posted seems a lot like work.

    yeah, the whole put it on your xbox thing is a total hassle. Just download it and watch it on your PC. "Oh it's done? *doubleclick*"
