Default Donating, good or bad?

Hi,

I am new to the site and have a quick question i was hoping y'all could answer.
If i donate to the site does this mean that i get unlimited downloads each day or does it just increase the amount of downloads i can make from the site each day, if so by how many?

Thanks in advance.

I'd like to know this too... I've seen other sites like this and they usually impose a limit... which really sucks. If you donate do you get unlimited bandwith? If not how much is given? is it still by files per day or bandwith per month?

I've donated to the site and found it's just generally unlimited. (i actually asked the mods the same thing months ago and I vaguely recall them saying there wasn't an issue with bandwidth). I've downloaded all day long for most of the month and haven't had a problem or reached any kind of limit.

When you donate and become an anime contributer, the amount of anime episodes you can download is unlimited. The only thing that still applies is that you can only download one episode at a time.

Of course donating is good! Without it this site would shut down, as server bills are over $1000/mo and there are no ads.

And yes, donators get to download an unlimited number of episodes.

Default Donating

I know that u want to stay away from downloading but u have all that extra space on the side of the website, u mite as well use it for something, now im not saying some crazy advertising that takes over the screen, it just sits on the side and ads away, its good for u so u could increase the limit a bit more and u guys can get more services and help u guys out more

also im thinking about donating to get unlimited downloads but i am always very skeptical but online paying and things as i dont know this website as i am new, is there any other way except paypal to "donate" for unlimited downloading

I actually have no problem in donating for unlimited downloads. The problem with this website is that you can only 'download one at a time,' which is really troublesome. In my internet connection, no matter how many files that I am downloading at the same time, the speed will never change, if any, the change is minimal. I used to download from megaupload for like 25 episodes at the same time and I finish them all in 2-3 hours. I wonder whether the administrator can fix the 'one download at a time' problem thing? It is such a waste of time when you have to wait until the first download is finished to move to the other one. I am pretty sure that if the administrator can fix this problem, more people will donate for sure.

EDIT: Forget what I wrote above. I tried downloading 'one at a time' twice today and all of them failed somehow. The downloading process went up to 5-6% and then it stopped on its own and won't resume downloading.

I told all my friends about your site because that's the only way I could "donate". I'm so poor now, from buying so much anime, and forgetting to save up. NOw i have bills to pay, and no job to pay them with. i wish i could do more, but is free advertising even close to donating? I wonder if someone high up could tell me. i love your site. i found it just like three days ago and ive been telling everyone i know to join the bandwagon. since im broke, it was the least i could do to try and help you out... but can some one tell me? Should i continue?
