And you know what would happen if those people found out about that site? Take a guess. Never heard of that site btw.

You didn't get my point did you?

^Part of what I said, the WoW thing was in relation to the argument even if it was about something else. So, it wasn't irrelevant either way. It helped prove my point seeing as the argument was about the same in a sense.
The fact that they spend money to a company they enjoy just means they want to support them. I'd rather buy my stuff than to pirate it so I could support them.

I've never found Funimation to produce anything "crappy" =/ It's a big company as I see it and has a lot of supporters. So either way they get their income and could care less about their stuff being thrown around.

You know yourself how many fans there are, as you stated it in your reply.

Who holds the power over that stuff though? I know I don't. Just because there are more fans than corporates means jack shit to them. That just means they will recieve income left or right whether they care or not about piracy.

Money speaks louder than words, and if money speaks in the right direction. You'd be surprised what would happen. Corporates have more money than Fans btw. So Guess who wins either way if action were to be taken?
I'm pretty much done, not a whole lot more I can say really unless I start repeating myself. I'm about at a dead end really.
Ah well, good arguing with you really. Tons better than most I argue with really.
If I continue I wouldn't really be saying anything except repeats so it'd just be a waste of time.
