While you were uploading stuff via Share, there's a text message saying that you'll be arrested while uploading and then it happened for now. I blame the future dairy for it, really.

They, and we won't go into exactly who "they" are, must have been watching this fellow for a while, and finally decided to bag him.

A word to the wise (and very likely many who are not so wise): Someone is always watching.

Loser. Another fool who thinks he will be a hero by uploading stuff but ends up being a zero. When will they learn? You bought it so just enjoy it; everyone else who wants to enjoy it can buy it for themselves too.

He probably didn't even buy most or all of it. This is what the CR holders get the most pissed about

You're probably right. Even more of a low-life....

If you have a future dairy on your phone, You'll get to see rumors that you'll may be arrested for what you're doing illegally.

Speaking of Mirai Nikki, And FUNimation still has the license to it. So the English dub cast will be revealed on your dairy.

The police officers are stalking you to see what you're doing...

So is it better that he isn't some rich sob that could afford to buy it all without a problem?

I will only agree to this when people stop complaining about Aniplex's pricing *or* when anime becomes available for 99 cents a season,

Seriously though, that argument overlooks so many factors it's hilarious. Just because someone wants to enjoy it doesn't mean that they can afford it/have access to it/think it's worth enough of their hard earned money. Also, just because they download and watch it doesn't stop them from buying the originals. Contrary to popular belief, the two can be mutually exclusive.

I buy imports so I don't complain about Aniplex pricing. I love Aniplex releases! I own Madoka Magica, Bakemonogatari, Nisemonogatari, Nekomonogatari, Vividred, Tonari no Kaibutsu Kun and I'm sure I'm forgetting some other Aniplex titles. The price is the price needed to support the shows so I don't complain. If it is too expensive then I don't buy, no complaints.

Doesn't matter if you can afford it or not. You can live without anime so no one, and I mean NO ONE needs to download illegally.

Certainly no one needs to UPLOAD illegally. What does uploading do for the UPLOADER? Nothing except some sort of feeling that they are a hero of the community or perhaps they feel if they download 100 series then they should 'give back' to this illegal community by buying one series and uploading it themself.

You can watch shows for free with ads on Crunchyroll, Funimation, et al so no one needs to download illegally or stream illegally. If a show isn't available in your area then don't watch it. Simple as that.

I haven't seen Jojo. Too bad for Jojo as I might have bought it if I could have seen it. I shouldn't need to download it illegally to get a free preview if you're going to tell me that the producers actually like illegal downloads as free advertising. If they want them as free ads then they should put their complete episodes on Youtube like they do with their PVs today. But they don't so obviously they feel there is value in NOT having their shows as free ads for the discs.

But that's my choice to want to only buy things I can see legally. I sometimes buy blind and did for Nekomonogatari and the last two discs of Kokoro Connect since they were only shown in Japan. Not really a difficult choice there after seeing the rest of the Monogatari franchise and the rest of the Kokoro Connect series I knew both would be good. Jojo's I have read the manga for years and years in Ultrajump but the anime could be total crap for all I know...

That's just how it is.

Some up-loaders do it to sites that pay them (don't know how much) for each "registered" illegal down-loader who downloads the bogus file. So there is a financial incentive for the big up-loaders - sometimes.

Which of course pisses off the CR holders even more.
