Well, streamloading is a lot faster. So really streamloading is only worth it so you can download things a lot faster. It's really up to you. Would you prefer to pay $5 a month and download things quickly or pay nothing and wait for a while (depending on what you download).

Oh well, no one's forcing you to streamload. It's completely up to you. ^_^

for newly released series, its actually less hassle to use bit torrents, its faster, and its free.

Streamload is making a profit stealing other people copyright. they unshare anything which isnt popular, so you cant upload legitimate material onto them. This is wrong, and i dont know why the authorites havent clamped down on them.

Cataphract,

Actually to be quite honest. You're not suposed to put anything on your Streamload account that you don't own the rights to. It's right in the agreement when you become a member, but usually what people say they agree to and what they do are two completely different things.

Really, Streamload is supposed to be a service to people who own business or websites. It's supposed to provide them with massive storage space without them having to worry about keeping up expensive servers. If you check out some of the options of Streamload, you can actually host material. Which means that if you bought enough download MB you could put a link to download something on your website and people could download directly from your Streamload account. The only problem is that it takes your download MB.

Are you people really over the age of 18??? WTF!!!! I didn't think older people watched and are willing to pay money to watch cartoons...

Jim Humper,

Well I for one am over the age of 18. Why don't you think that legal adults would want to watch anime? Do you think that when people hit that magical number 18, they lose all interest in anything that people would consider childish? Perhaps you need to broaden your horizon. Besides anime is definitely not a for children only kind of thing. In fact, I've seen some anime that I wouldn't dare let a child watch. By the way, if you're willing to say, how old are you? And do you even watch anime, or were you just visiting? ^_^
