The remaining 25% of the time I download, but I'm very specific about what I get this way. If someone recommends an anime to me, I download and watch the first 2-3 episodes, sometimes 4-5. If I like the anime and it is licensed in the US, I delete the downloads and buy the DVDs. If I like the anime and it's unlicensed, I download and keep until (if) it becomes licensed, then delete and buy. I'm a strong believer in supporting anime companies as much as possible, so I only use downloading for scouting purposes.

Yeah I used to do that too, until they kept screwing me over. After buying an entire series, they come out with a box set... what's that all about.. -__- Special Edition at that... Then they do that with the first DVD, it comes with a special box.. so now I'd have to find the DVDs.. and complete the box myself.. half the time the stores don't even have ALL the dvds there anyway..... So, now. if it's a series I'm interested in, and it's licensed.. I'll look to see if I can DL it to watch, iono bout keeping them after I've watched them though.. but I'll get back to you after I finish. lol.. As for the most part I usuallY do..
