TV sets cut off the edges of the picture.
Computer monitors do not.

Maybe that means I should start watching my anime only on my computer. That kind of sucks my TV is bigger, but yo uwhere right. I put the real lain in that it was the same there, but stil lthere was that green spot on the boot.

And also there was the fact that on the boot the begging with lain was cut.

I just joined this site today, so hi!

I really wish I would have read a thread like this sooner. I'm 100% sure now that some dvds I bought recently are bootlegs

Feeling a bit stupid now. At least now I know, and won't be making that mistake again.

lol omg you have a cute personality dun feel stupid ^_^,now on this subject-straightens up and gets the serious face-,like some people have said:i hate bootleggers except for the really well done ones,well i agree,but also usually i get my stuff of torrents or from korea( dun ask why lol the got theyre own thing better then our system XDbut i use the korean system for normal movies

and maybe some that havent come out yet

) however i noticed that the quality of bootlegs is despicable!(sure some r good but its rare!) i can see people standing up lol and like some parts you cant understand since the stuff is cut off the bottom and top cuzve the camera and all that stuff!i was disgusted,it froze at some parts,etc,...on top of that,if your gonna sell this ''product'' dont rip people off by selling maybe earlier but for a price which is similar to the original!!
it does kinda of tick him off that some people do that.

PS:dont tell anyone bout the korean thing^^ lol its legal if i dont sell it,i jus burn DVDs for myself dun worry;)

LOVE AND PEACE ^.^ (vash-style XD)

It really pisses me off fake dvds as I have to pay a considerable amount of money and have to wait longer than the rest of the world to get legitimate copys of anime and then some tosser at university tells me "oh yeah I've already seen that I bought all the dvds for like $5 from some asian guy months ago" grrrrr.

Well, I disagree. I don't get bootlegs for the principle of the matter. Look it is some one elses work that they put time money and effort into, and then some else takes it and just copies it sells it and makes all the money. I sort of have a general feeling that most people here also hate boots for that fact. Besides if you think about it if everyone bought boots then there would be no more anime left. Its because of people like me who buy the real stuff and support the anime artist that anime is aloud to keep going, and I hate the fact that booters leach of that as well as the people who buy the boots.

A question- Are most anime that haven't been liscensed in US that have subs fansubbed or bootleg?

Well, unless it is the liscensed one in Japan that someone brought over here then it would be illegeal.
