Download Anime Series - Comparing 3 Ways To Download Anime Series

By Davion W

Animes and manga are popular icons of Japan. Millions download anime series everyday. These are not only well loved by Japanese kids and teens but by the adolescent population all over the world. Even adults are attracted by the colorful characters depicted in the cartoons, not to mention their engaging storylines which always have a lesson to tell.

Viewers generally are willing to fork out dollars if they want to keep the DVD edition. If not, it seems reasonable to want to pay as little as possible if they are watching the downloads once only. It would even be better if they can find them free. It is possible these days to download anime series cheaply and yet not break any law. There are tons of software applications people can use to download media files.

One such option is a free one which is to download anime series using the peer-to-peer file sharing networks. More commonly known as P2P, this system lets all its users to share the files, which can include music, movies, software and even anime and manga series. All you need to do is to search for the title you want just like what you would do with a search engine like Google and Yahoo.

Once an ideal title is found, the user may then opt to click a button to download the file. The length of time consumed depends on the users' Internet connection. This may also depend on the computer's memory, as low memory seriously affects a computer's performance.

Another aspect that may affect the computer download is the number of people sharing the same file. If more people have the same exact file available at the moment of download, the server has more sources to draw from, causing the download to get faster. The trouble is this source is notorious for poor quality downloads as well as the exposure of your PC to harmful viruses and malware.

Another method is to use the torrent files. In order to use this method, you need to run torrent clients. This is no child's play for anyone. If you are not comfortable with techie stuff, then this option is going to be challenging for you. All the files require format conversion. A disadvantage of using this is the associated cost of using a torrent client to download the files.

The last method to download your favorite anime series is to go to the membership sites. The memberships are reasonably priced and can range from $30 to $50 depending on the features and database size. Each membership entitles you to unlimited access to their anime and manga selection anytime you wish without any bandwidth limits. Expect the anime movies and series to come in high DVD quality. Download speeds can be 300 times faster than the normal ones you are so used to at torrents and P2P sites.

The best option to download for pennies is to use the paid membership sites, especially if you intend to download anime series as these are long, not like movies that only last two hours.
