Not months, but two weeks. Getting things downloaded via bittorrent is hard since my campus has capped it, and thus downloading is uberslow :(

FTP, yes :)

And now I do have some anime (and uber amv's), but unfortunately I have no ways of encoding it as my laptop is borked. Maybe permanently.

What I may do is install it up on the workstation I use at work, and run it in the background. I'll see about doing this: we may have updates yet! :D

What encoding needs doing? i.e. what codex :)

My machine is running 12 - 18 hrs a day, mostly seeding :D
If you let me have the info, I could do some encoding and, if you give me an FTP account, I could then push it onto the server :)

I can do Kazahana straight away, cuz I have that already :YES:
Any big series (that I don't have) may have to wait until I get another HD :P

mmm, so we get a percent of that $10,000 right? Say like a nice, even 25%? :P

The technical process for converting anime:
1) Use virtualdub to resize the anime nicely into the 320x240 dimensions for eatv, and the 20.0 fps required.
2) Use nsvenc to convert it to vp6.1 format at a certain bitrate with many other specific settings so eatv will play it correctly.

If you (or others) are seriously interested, I will post a HOWTO. You will also have to make sure that you are not converting or decoding with DivX because that will watermark the anime.

Unlike you, I don't like theft :angry:

Yes, I use bittorrent to get stuff which is either:
1 - Unobtainable or not available on DVD.
2 - Un-licenced.
3 - To Try out a series.

BUT, if I like a series, I'll buy it, even if it means importing it from the USA.

But what's the point of this rant.

I take it you go into video shops and steel the DVD's, or do you use Kazza cuz you're scared to do it? After all, by DLing the first 5 eps of Excel, that's just what you've done :no:

Actually, it's not the same. For one, you aren't "stealing" all the physical costs of the anime like packaging, disks, etc. And second, if you were to physically steal the goods, the store would have a full loss of the wholesale price, instead of the distributor having a loss of just the cost of IP rights.

Now, that's a minor argument, and I do want to support anime companies. But asking $25 for ~4 episodes is a rather steep price. Bring down the prices and sales might go up. :no:
