Any anime with subs on lots of anime websites is all suddenly gone. The companys are taking it off because they think it's illegal... I'm serious. All my favorite anime has already been taken off and I asked my friends about their anime and they say it's gone too.

Where have you been? This has been going on forever And of course it's illegal since your not paying for it (it's not free to make you know)
It's the same how it's illegal to download music for free
well i think its not fair they are taking it off even though its illegal i mean not everyone has enough money to buy anime and manga and the only way u would be able to watch anime is probably on tv which on mine they like only give it at night at adult swim which sucks b/c i have to stay up late to watch it and i have school stressed I HOPE THEY DONT TAKE OFF ALL THE SUBBED ANIMES ON THE INTERNET i know its not legal but it would suck not having anime to watch or read manga since u wouldnt be able to afford it xp

I have been able to find a lot of animes without trouble recently, you just might have to look a little harder for the older stuff. There are a lot of sites out there, and some of them couldn't care less about copyright infringement. Other sites just have to delete their stuff after a certain amount of time due to limitations in memory on their servers. As much as I enjoy anime on the internet, I would still condone supporting the creators and the dubbing companies if you can afford to do so, because if you don't, the industry suffers, and there will be less anime for us all.

i have to agree... anime in my country are all imports and very very expensive with all shippings and sorts.. and some of them are even branded original copies but weren't.. .. we don't have cable channels so all i could watch are just local shows and few koreanovela and no animes... i could only watch anime via net and if they are removing everything on the net, i don't know how i could watch them now? 0_0 i guess i should start searching for pirated copies or somewhere...
and most mangas i read are scanlated with no english versions... i can't read japanese and i barely understand the language... i can't afford to buy expensive manga i don't understand...

Your confusing what you want and whats fair It's more then fair for companies to want their property not to be stolen since it cost them big bucks to make in the first place. If you don't have money to buy it then that's a shame but it's not their fault
Anime on the internet is stealing since they get no money what so ever from it (same with music from Limewire) At least when it's on TV they get paid by the advertisements and what not
Some companies (like Funimation) are starting to post episodes of their series on Youtube for people to watch. To try and curb people away from watching it online illegally
Now I watch anime online all the time (and also own a LOT of anime dvds) but if all anime was suddenly removed from the internet I would be sad but I wouldn't think it was unfair
Im sorry but I have to side with Lisa4414 on this one. It IS illegal to put other peoples creation on the net, even if it is free fansub/dub. However it's not like they're losing all of their money over this. Doesn't the other merchandise of the animes created bring in a considerable profit? If the anime is really popular I would think that the creator and the companies involved would generate enough profits off of the accessories alone.
