What do you prefer, streaming anime or downloading?
Also, Do you stream/download all your anime?
Do you download manga or read online?...
Do you have unlimited plans or high speed plans?
Just curious :]

If you are watching anime, then it's better to avoid streams. It's really REALLY hell when you internet breaks up mid-way.

With manga, it's a mixed bag for me. Having it online makes it easy to save bookmarks.

Stream....Download takes a lot of time. Oh Yes, About Rewatching - I have RealPlayer & it allows me to download the streamed anime in seconds. & for AMVs I have a Software which converts the .flv files to .avi files....So no Problem at all!!

I prefer downloading anime in MP4/RMVB format and then, watch it. For Manga, reading it online is much comfortable like that. *(=_=)* But, I've to download the chapters too just in case the respective site do not have those particular chapters.

Download, all the way. Prefer AVI, followed by MKV. OGM is last resort.

Another question: Download, watch, delete? Or download, watch, and store?

Personally - Download, watch, store/archive. I'm close to 1TB by now...

Downloading for sure.... We indians still don't have awesome broadband plans like other countries do. This sucks and forces me to download everything and then watch :/
I don't hate downloading though : )
