I wanted to start up a website that offers streaming anime. Is this illegal or be possable for the average joe if it cost money for streaming rights or whatnot? Anyone who would know and post..I would really appreciate it =D.

hulu and crunchyroll alreay exist

yes but they charge lol... after looking in to it a little more i've found it's out of the question.. Dissapointing lol..what to do with this nice little layout I made heh

why?

why pay crunchyroll if you can get everything for


using a

tell me

People should be willing to pay for anime.. I honestly was suprised at how many sites are out there offering it illegally streaming off there sites.. After looking this up Ive found they passed a new law that makes streaming shows online a felony and penalty of 5 yrs in prison lol.. I don't wanna mess with that.. I just wanted to offer a nice website that does it..But turns out also that for a series for example like "Naruto" the right requires to post up streaming videos to surfers is $1-2,000.00 per episode.. think naruto has like 5-600..that's over a million to post the whole series lol.. Nuts o.O

LOL



yea maybe in madagascar

lol..no dam near everywhere lol.. and lol at ppl shld pay for anime? do u like it? u want to continue seeing new interesting shows popup? then ur contribution to the writers is necessary.. it isn't free to produce anime.. so u shldnt be able to stream it free... try posting a direct download to a digital copyof "pirates of the Caribbean" lol.. or post it somewhere for ppl to stream.. c how long it takes b4 ur in court.. lol.. point is.. anime is a licensed show.. no different.

I believe in supporting the creators and all (I buy all the yuri manga released in the US for instance) but do you realize how little the overseas market contributes to the profits of the Japanese producers when compared with their home consumers?

This is manga, but the same principles apply.
