you can also google everythingmoe.com at this point for actual /a/ related stuff
we had the similar discussions where another big streaming site got nuked or 2 years ago and conclusion is everytime the same. Oldfags laugh at streambabies, streambabies fight back claiming that streaming in modern times is just the same as using a torrented RAW with subs
I personally can find a multitudes of titles with shitty streaming version like pic rel dragon ball z (stream vs dragon collection DVDs). Most, ro actually every streaming site just rips off crunchyroll together with subs. Is mostly shit. But I can't blame you, because fansubing is dead for more than a decade now(fuck you horriblesubs) and quality is meh because normalfags don't actually watch shows but have it on second screen when they're doing soemthing diffirent

Streaming is like fastfood. If you like it, sure get it inb4 food refference. But when I eat my cheeseburger I don't pretend I eat peak 5 star restaurant main dish. You also don't need anyone to just stay next to you and preach STOP DOING THAT when you enjoy it
And considering how hard everythign get's nuked worldwide on internet, I really suggest to make an offline HDD setup with most shows, especially those more niche, because they're ind anger of completely vanishing from the internet. Even now, certain shows only exist as cosntant reuploads and rips from other streaming websites

God, torrentfags really are such obnoxious niggers. Don't get the absolute hate towards streaming. Why should I spend time, effort and disk space downloading something that I just wanted to check out or don't plan on rewatching?

>Implying I implied the such

If my ideas are tied to the previous sentence, of course I'll keep it within the same paragraph. For example, one could say you are a faggot. And also a retard in the same paragraph, as it ties into the faggotry.

However, especially in 4chins-shortform posts, breaking separate ideas out into separate paragraphs enhances readability, especially for zoomies that can't capitalize their fucking sentences even. Often these will be one-sentence with the shortform nature of most posting here.

tl;dr (since you obviously can't): I'm sorry the 21st century schooling system has failed you so, but for starters you should actually learn what 'reddit spacing' actually entails, (which is generally a triple-newline when they try to post ribbit-style here unconsciously).

Use torrents or pay up. People streaming on pirate sites are actually subhuman.

Pirate stream sites steal from everyone, steal from official sites, steal from fan groups, steal from translators and they do it just for the chance at some ad rev or stealing your data. They are objectively bad for everyone.

Im old now. I use streaming for the convenience. And I've grown to like watching low effort slop isekai so I'm not filling my hard drives with it. I only download good series.

Speaking of Kino - Esper Mami is Kino and I can only find like 36 subbed episodes. Watching it raw requires a lot of slowing down because my Japanese is conversational at best. I want to see how this show finishes comfortably thx. Anybody ever gonna sub it?

Since everyone is going in circles, the question is WHY would someone torrent EVERY show they want to watch? You say it takes 2 minutes to torrent (ok?) a couple episodes, but the question is why would you do this for a show you don’t love. Im a retarded zoomer and I’m listening. Why should i torrent “Boku no kokoro no pederast hidoi desune?”or “That time i didn’t get reincarnated.”
Yes it’s higher quality, yes it’s lazy to watch it in a streaming site but why shouldn’t someone pick the convenient option? This is not an e-bike to cycling or walking comparison, whats the real benefit? Unless your argument is that people should use torrents to support the free internet.

given that most torrents these days are just rips from streams because that's the primary source for anime these days, there's not even much of an argument, back in the day you could get higher quality video off the DVDs and then BDs, but now not so much, it's mainly crunchyroll or hidive rips
>>
>>286703225
I think a lot of torrenters here are overreacting. It's really not that deep.
I still torrent most shit so I can extract high quality screenshots and raw gifs. This, and always having the media available offline is nice.
The only exception is seasonals. I've been meaning to configure my torrent server to automatically fetch the latest episodes but I'm not quite sure how to handle it yet. RSS feeds, probably.

It's not even the price that's killing Crunchy Roll or Hi Dive. It's their shit site layout, wokeshit translations and localizations and the fact they have only a fraction of a selection compared to what is out there.

From what I've heard, if you want to buy manga and you know Japanese, you can sometimes pick up insane sales and deals online for them. I mean something like 20 volumes of manga for €20 types of deals, which actually does seem worthwhile. I know just about enough Nip to try this out myself for some series although it's mostly my reading speed that is awful
I'm not paying €13 for a translation of a single manga volume.

I will never understand streamfags still arguing that it's somehow more convenient to use your browser and go to a site every time, and most likely have to use shitty search functions to look for something when torrenting with an RSS feed literally just downloads the episode onto my anime folder while I'm doing other shit or when I'm asleep.

this is a retarded stance to take when most pirate stream sites transcode the torrents they get or snatch the already transcoded mini-encodes from nyaa to then ALSO bitstarve them on their players.
watching the same file from CR on mpv actually gives a superior experience since even CR bitstarve their shit (at least they did more than 5 years ago) and have a worse player, though of course CR is still vastly preferable to pirate streams quality wise (if you can stomach actually paying and paying the people ruining anime or funding shit like HGS at that)

HBO max is neat, still works fine same with Paramout (which now owns it)

Yes, that's the ideal but streaming is a nice grey area where you can't be held liable for watching a video, even if it's copyrighted, since you didn't download anything. It makes them seethe and since it's Normie friendly it keeps everyone's attention away from everything else

Retards were seeding a jujutsu kaisen episode which had the exe extension inside instead of the usual mvk or mp4.

I'll be honest I will never understand the appeal of buying physical. I mean I've heard people explain the appeal to me before but I personally have never got it.
Anime, and really audiovisual media in general ought to move away from physical and streaming and go into a steam sort of platform.
Honestly if the japs somehow made like a steam sort of thing with mpv support, where shit was all in one place and it was just as convenient as torrenting+rss in that it automatically downloads the files into your folder, with high quality and good subs (though I don't need them anymore) then I'd gladly fork over 10 or even 20 dollars a month

but that's beside the point. fact is there are these faggots using seedboxes in the swarm, so if you didn't have a skill issue you'd know where to look for that album where you could actually enjoy the hundred gigabit upload speed of these seedboxer racers to download from

I'm not using a seedbox, you don't need a fucking seedbox. I'm pretty sure these fags are just using seedboxes to race and build ratio.

but that anon is not wrong
with streaming the file is already available for consumption.
to torrent you need to search a file with an active torrent and then pay a seedbox for a better download speed.
The skill to find torrents with active seeders is what made streaming sites to rise now that direct download is at risk to disappear.

He really does need to stop making excuses, it was easy for me and it should be as easy for anyone.

I see where the problem is now: you were some faggot who got BTFO earlier in the thread when anons explained how shit streaming anime is compared to torrenting it and because you have zero understanding of things you assumed people dunking on some retard bad at torrenting is supposed to be a mark against torrenting.

For torrents you only need to click magnet link or download small torrent file. At best you will get GeoIP ban from site itself.

If they do that you just ask Russians how to bypass it.

>>
>>286713728
FLAC is just keeping the quality of the source.
Either datamining if you are autistic enough or just screen recording at an uncompressed file, edit out stuff, render it as flac and thats it.
Barely any flac out there on torrents is from the CD to say the quality is different from Youtube Music Premuin compared to jp online flac stores which sell 500+mb audio files per track.

are you retarded? the audio on youtube is encoded as opus or AAC, both of those are lossy formats.
you can't take a lossy format and turn it into a lossless format like FLAC, that's a lossy transcode.

I found a torrent, I don't use a seedbox. the reply to my first reply was >>286707844 to which I mentioned that the swarm included seedboxes in the netherlands so of course the seeders would be active, then you replied with
>Download time depends on ISP than on the peers' location you tribalfag meatbag.
Your shit is useless it there are not active seeders.
which shows zero understanding of seedboxes or swarms or even how the bittorrent protocol works.

I don't pay for a seedbox, but someone was seeding that torrent from a seedbox, therefore I could enjoy the super fast download speed that their upload speed provided as seen here >>286710553

Retard, if the source of the audio is a streaming site then the FLAC is going to be streaming quality, no matter how many codecs you pack on it.
Love Live lastest group songs are yet to be released on physical and are only available on digital yet there are flacs to torrent out there.
If you think the uploaders got a file with a better quality than the current available digital ones you are a limpbrain.

What is your point here? if it's released digitally on a site that uses lossless codecs then that is already lossless quality and why the FLACs are uploaded on nyaa as torrents.
Deezer, for example, uploads as flacs and is where alot of people rip from. Youtube and Spotify use lossy codecs and is why people don't rip from them.
Again, the dude /could/ pay for a deezer account and listen to it there, but he wanted the flacs for free and ostensibly doesn't want youtube quality. It's just that he was bad at torrenting.
Again, since you're still hellbent on trying to use music streaming as an example of anime streaming not being shit, point me to where you can listen to Sakura trick's OP in lossless quality for free. There are no pirate streaming sites for music that bother to also keep the encoding lossless

I have fucking spelled it out for you so many times and you STILL don't get it. The skill issue is that he was unable to find a good torrent. I only mentioned seedboxes to disprove the faggot trying to cope about active seeders or slow speeds. Noone is downloading anything for me since I'm not the one using seedboxes to download, they're just in the swam seeding the torrent that they already downloaded for themselves. The torrent that i snatched is fast because those same seedboxes are still seeding the torrents super quickly.
>If it is not available you must trust a total stranger to download it for you
You have zero understanding of how seedboxes work on top of it all
>>
>>286714720
you didn't read the reply to that post and are ignoring how the sakura trick OP doesn't exist for free in lossless quality other than in torrents
I'll reiterate what I posted here >>286714667
since you're still hellbent on trying to use music streaming as an example of anime streaming not being shit, point me to where you can listen to Sakura trick's OP in lossless quality for free. There are no pirate streaming sites for music that bother to also keep the encoding lossless

Nope.

No, I just looked for it in my private tracker. The seedbox is just incidental to my finding a good torrent.
I'll reiterate again, show me where you can listen to, and therefore rip a lossless flac copy from, the sakura trick OP online for free.
The whole reason skill issue anon wants flacs is cause he wants flac quality, which he can only obtain for free from torrents. You're the retard who brought up youtube premium like an absolute smoothbrain here >>286713992 while claiming most flac uploads aren't from lossless WEB sources or CD sources

how else is anyone going to get lossless/flac quality sakura trick OP for free? I didn't pay anything to gain access to private trackers, they're fucking easy to get into. Not being in one is a skill issue, hence my first reply.
And again, show me a pirate site where you can listen to and rip a lossless flac copy of the sakura trick OP online for free. There isn't one. Therefore you have to use torrents.

they're already better even if you're just a pleb stuck on public trackers because of skill issue
the fact that the retarded ESL zoomer can't provide an example of a pirate site where you can listen to and rip a lossless flac copy of the sakura trick OP online for free shows that, it doesn't exist. Skill issue anon may be a retard but he will eventually get his flacs just by waiting. Using streams will never be able to provide lossless quality (without paypigging)
>>
>>286715707
>free flac streaming sites exist? amirite?
they don't. which is my whole fucking point and why skill issue anon is using torrents

I already mentioned how skill issue anon probably already listened to the sakura trick OP on youtube. The thing is there is ZERO WAY to get lossless quality of it for free without using torrents. I've repeated this so many times but you keep proving youre too stupid to get this point.
>>286715836
An RSS feed is a standardized machine-readable stream of updates from a website. It allows software to automatically receive new content without repeatedly visiting the site manually. So torrent clients will read the rss feeds of torrent trackers like nyaa or the the rss feeds of sites like subsplease or erai-raws and will automatically download the magnet
>>
>>286715848
I'm not subtle bragging, I'm calling him out as a skill-let and a retard. I'll give him some credit, at least he isn't as retarded as the average streamfag.
It's fucking easy to get into private trackers. It always makes me super amused to see streamfags call them sekret clubs when I got in when they were literally giving invites en masse on this board in the past

>Alright, that’s not as easy or convenient as going to a streaming site and hitting play.
Reread the whole thread, I know you're being a retard and still trying conflate anime streaming with music streaming but torrenting anime is not only better quality wise but also more convenient.
The only reason you latched onto my calling skill issue anon a retard is cause you misunderstood the situation and assumed that my criticizing his lack of skill in torrenting is somehow a dig at torrenting when streaming has zero recourse when it comes to obtaining lossless quality.
And either way, when it comes to music I personally also find torrenting more convenient than streaming because I don't need to pay and spotify or apple music doesn't have the more obscure shit I listen to in the first place
>>
>>286715740
Oh god you people are so insufferable. You totally need this generic JPop song from some literally who fanservice anime in lossless for maximum enjoyment. AT least pick something where the effort will seem justifiable.
It's on Spotify anyway, which is the first google result. Spotify has lossless now.
>>
>>286716173
I have never even seen sakura trick the anime.
the whole tirade was cause the original inciting post was about some fag unable to find a good torrent for it
>>286716173
>Spotify has lossless now
yeah, for premium users, fucking retard
>>
>>286715952
>get an invitation is a skill
For you, that is have a better luck than the average anon. Which does not put you on the same wavelength than most torrent fags on this board.
The average anon use public torrents, not private ones.
>>
>>286716223
>Double (You) the same post
No matter how much you try autist
Your case is not an universal law to apply on every anon.
>>
>>286716297
It's still a skill gap since he could also do something like use deemix-gui (or whatever the modern method is) to rip lossless from deezer
but even when it comes to getting into private trackers it's STILL fucking easy.
the private tracker I used and am posting about is literally open for signups right now btw, you just need to not be a retard and answer shit correctly
>>
>>286716345
You know what is universal though? streaming anime being worse quality than downloading while also being less convenient
another universal axiom? streamfags being retards
>>
>>286716074
I’m not whatever anon you think I am. I didn’t do or say any of that.
Streaming is easier and more convenient than torrenting. RSS needs to be set up, you need a torrent client, a good media player, and you’ll probably need to fuss with all of it for it to reach a workable level. Torrenting is better quality-wise and is the better way to watch anime, but it still requires more steps and effort than streaming. Claiming it’s more convenient is just a complete lie.
>>
>>286716352
>Rip it from Deezer
This derail was never about over torrenting a flac.
>>
>>286716367
Is not less convenient since you do not need to get into a private tracker to watch it.
>>
>>286716384
>RSS needs to be set up
wow, typing a few words at the beginning of a season, SOOOO difficult even that is less effort than typing shit into your url bar every time
>you need a torrent client, a good media player
I see downloading applications is now beyond the streamfag
>you’ll probably need to fuss with all of it for it to reach a workable level
it works out of the box

Sure, it might have a higher barrier of entry owing to you needing to not be a drooling retard, but if we're really talking about effort then I've saved way more of it by torrenting. I literally started torrenting because I was lazy and it was the most convenient method extant
>>286716414
the derail was because the faggot misunderstood literally everything about torrenting. hence the inane non-sequiturs about active seeders and still not understanding what a seedbox is or what the swarm is
also are you really gonna cry about this thread?
if anything """Derailing""" this shit thread about some shitty stream site is a good thing
>>286716454
You don't really need a private tracker. Nyaa is already good for the vast majority of anons.
Anons using nyaa are already lightyears ahead of streamfag lobotomites
>>
>>286716519
You’re having an argument I’m not.
Streaming is easier and more convenient. This is just objectively true.
>>
>>286716639
And I'm saying it's less convenient for me, objectively
>>
>>286716651
Because you’ve already done all the shit that makes it less convenient.

Thats jew behavior.

>>286716702
more convenient you mean, and yes
from an objective standpoint streamfags are expending more effort than I am
look at this very thread, bemoaning the loss of some retarded stream site. just the fact that they have to go look for another one is more effort and more inconvenience than I will ever run across
>>286716727
No, they were trying to say something abjectly false, and this reply >>286702519
called him out on it
and again, my making fun of him shouldn't even be included in your retarded streamfag defense since it's a completely insulated thing from streaming owing to the fact that no free pirate streamings sites exist that provide lossless quality
that anon could only obtain lossless for free through torrenting or ripping from deezer or whatever

No because I believe torrenting is more of a hassle than streaming.

driving to the super market requires you spend money on a car.
driving there means you have to find a parking spot, and you need to heighten your awareness so you don't hit anyone/damage your car.
this is arguably worth it, but not necessarily better.

niggaz will unironically setup entire IT infrastructure and then call other people retards for being happy with using their rig which only has 500gig of space to watch a show in 1080p via some web browser.

meanwhile you consneeded and had to bring up paid options in a thread about piracy because you couldn't refute my point about no free streaming sites existing with lossless quality

If you have some odd desire to hoard everything you watch, then it makes sense to have a lot of disk space.
For me it would be like buying supreme clothes. Are you so rich that you buy expensive clothing because it's trendy? Do you think people who don't are 'poor'?

Most of this thread was streamfags being shat on for being retarded normalfags before a couple of autismos turned it into being a long argument when the whole deal with streamtards is just making fun of them and not taking any of their " concerns " seriously. I can't get too mad at this shit thread considering it's a dumping ground for streamfags to get mocked, but it really should have been deleted

RED? they have open recruitment. Just sign up and answer the questions correctly, the questions are basically just knowing about how torrenting works, what transcodes are, how music codecs work, how music is released, etc.
then you build ratio by using the site and you eventually get into other private trackers through their recruitment forums
I've legitimately talked to a single other user in my decade of using private trackers.
and anyway his only choice IS torrents since he specifically wants FLACS for free. After all, there isn't a free pirate streaming site that offers lossless quality.

yeah, not only that but also better in terms of quality

no, he specifically wanted the flacs
again, the song is on youtube; it's pretty obvious he wants the flacs for archiving's sake

i don't know why you would need that, unless you're playing it on some riced out system.

>>286718836
Btw? That flac/Mp3 arguement? Just convert them to mp3 to save space. Is it too mcuh effort to convert the album to mp3 afterwards? But you want mp3 immediately spoonfed to you? Baby.

Well we can't really make assumptions, occams razor is that he listens to the song already on youtube but spefically wants the flacs for archiving or quality's sake

Really all I can hear from you is: "Me. Me. Me." The entitlement is real. Get used to this. Things will only become harder to find from now on
>>
>>286719071
well no he was trying to get the flacs, which are probably for archival purposes
if he has the flacs he can always just make mp3s from them
you can't make flacs from mp3s since thats a lossy to lossless transcode
>>286719100
>Things will only become harder to find from now on
which is precisely why people fucking torrent lmao
the protocol itself is inherently decentralized
pirate streaming sites are all standalone affairs with centralized servers
should one go down then people have to go to the next one
not to mention they get all their content from torrent trackers anyway (and make them worse through reencoding and bitstarving)

still something you can choose to do but personally I've never done it since mp3s are smaller and the soundcards on phones aren't all that good anyway
but if you're gonna archive music then you're gonna wanna do it with a lossless codec, which is what i assume that anon wanted to do

Just remember, without torrent chads, you stream cucks have nothing. You are forever a slave to torrent chads.
>>
>>286719347
Early streaming sites started because torrent fags saw finding a torrent with a good quality video was a chore and even moreso to time subtitles if it needed them.
So they just uploaded the files from the torrented good ones on the web and boom streaming gains popularity due how easier is to watch.
>>
>>286719347
Yeah so a minority of them are actually chads.
True.

streamfags telling them that would fan their sense of superiority even harder
actually it would outright prove it to be true
what a dumb post

Download in lesser quality or convert it to one? Not every torrent is flac or blu-ray 4k that takes 30GB. I also like to save more than save 1 in highest possible quality

lol yeah right.
torrentfags feel the need to justify their expenses by telling streamchads to stop enjoying on-demand 1080p anime because higher quality is possible.
nothing personal, kid

>>286719592
>justify their expenses
nobody is doing that
torrent users (actual humans) are just pointing out the truth in streaming being worse

>>286719545
Thats hardsubs retard
Softsubs are the ones which need timing and are the ones to allow personalization
They are the ones every popular streaming - legal and illegal - site use since allows for stuff like change the font size on real time.
Reading on hardsubs >>286719505 is pussy behavior even on old /a/

well youre the one talking about the old times
back then streams couldnt even do softsubs
they were all hardsubbed

>>286719621
yeah they aren't saying outright "I need to say this to make myself feel better", but they don't need to say it at all, and it's never stated politely. It's stated with contempt.
When you argue with them, it always boils down to them calling you poor. It's never something along the lines of 'what ever floats your boat'.
>>
>>286719682
he's the one who brought up "early streaming sites"
I brought that up to prove to him he was full of shit
either way, streaming is still worse since sites still reencode and bitstarve
that's why even the most popular pirate stream sites sill have banding out the ass and compression artifacts
>>
>>286719668
Because they were already compiled on a single video file so there was no need for timing. The uploader took its sweet ass time to sync the subs, edit the font size and hardsub them on the video to upload it so the upcoming viewers do not go to that hell.
Now the viewer can edit the subs from the web player on real time.
>>
>>286719722
no, it boils down to streaming still being an inferior method of piracy and streamfags being too stupid to torrent instead

no even back then that shit was already done by the people uploading on nyaa
back then madvr+cccp on mpc could play literally everything anyway
all stream sites did was take those files from torrents and reupload them after reencoding and bitstarving them, like they do today
>>
Fansubs are dead, every modern torrent is a rip from Crunchyroll
Torrentfags are proud about going through extra hoops to get the exact same shit as everyone else, pure fucking autism
>>
>>286719772
case in point
>>
>>286719565
I would hazard a pretty good guess that torrent users who care enough to purchase hardware specifically to store anime and to get the highest possible quality are far more likely to buy actual anime merch.
>>
>>286719792
as pointed out in the thread already, watching the same file from CR on mpv actually gives a superior experience since even CR bitstarve their shit (at least they did more than 5 years ago) and have a worse player, though of course CR is still vastly preferable to pirate streams quality wise (if you can stomach actually paying and paying the people ruining anime or funding shit like HGS at that)
pirate stream sites transcode the torrents they get or snatch the already transcoded mini-encodes from nyaa to then ALSO bitstarve them on their players.
>>
>>286719621
>noooo but it's 'inferior'
>it's stupid!!!

it seems like being content with streaming sites boggles torrentfags minds.

Offline viewing.
Customization.
Preservation.
Version (TV vs BR release).
Automatic configuration (quicker access than streaming).
Quality.

>Streaming
Easy initial setup.
Device agnostic (can watch on phone/TV/Computer easily).

There are reasons to stream, but mostly if you are someone who travels a lot or doesn't have a desktop/monitor setup.

Are you a schizo? Obviously someone who likes anime enough to torrent and purchase hardware also likely buys it enough to get anime merch. I am not talking about hardware or gacha shit. I am talking official anime merch.

no i didn't, but you're desperate to interpret it that way because you're insecure.
it's superior because it's more efficient. less time/money spent, ~roughly same amount of satisfaction.
you're so desperate to justify your spending that you're looking for any win possible. how cringe.
imagine if i was mad you spent so much time and money on useless shit.
i'm not mad because i don't need external validation for the decisions i've made.
