Well it cost money in order to buy the stuff but it takes a while to download so its really up to you. Personally i perfer buying because your computer only has so much memory before it runs out.

I like to download stuff, but I get really bored downloading movies. I don't have enough patience to wait for the movies. I prefer buying even if it is expensive but at least, I am able to help the artist by buying the products of the shows.

^_^v PEACE OUT!

Downloading


Pros
Free
Audio in Japanese
Don't have to worry about regional coding and stuff
Often subbed in many languages, not just English

Cons
Time consuming
Clogs up hard drive (unless you burn onto DVD)
Translations may not be the best
Quality not as good
Technically illegal

Buying DVD


Pros
Support the artist, company
Dual audio (could be con)
DVD video quality is better
Translations usually more accurate

Cons
Expensive
Some animes are not available on DVD
Mostly just English
DUBS! DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE

Even if I watch on DVDS's or on downloaded files with dual audio, I listen to the japanese audio and just read the subtitle. Really, a change in the voice of the characters change a lot of things... It can greatly affect your view and perception of the anime and its characters.

Well sometimes you download is to find out whether the show is nice a not... If the show is nice, i would consider buying the show but if the anime is crap... well maybe just stick to downloading finish the show till its licensed. Well u got to agree, if u bought a lousy anime show, wont u like destroy your television when u continue the anime and dump the CD in the dumpster? well i would Lol..
