>stop manga privacy
Why the fuck should I share with other people what I am reading? This isn't MAL.

LOL

To anyone who actually thinks that an illegally downloaded copy equals a loss of profit, I would just like to point out that over my life I have consumed so much stuff illegally, that a rough estimate says that their combined price is between 1 and 2 orders of magnitude greater than my savings.
It would have been physically impossible for me to pay for even 10% of it all (unless you wish to argue that evil bread merchants are now shamelessly enjoying undeserved profits).
I do pay for media if I really like them, at a rate where I do not ruin myself.

What is the harm of me consuming more stuff illegally and then deciding which ones I should vote for with my wallet?

I wouldn’t pirate if the stuff I wanted to read had an official english release. If they’re upset people pirate, they should address the cause of the problem and try to fix it instead of shouting into the void.

I like the one from Uramichi Oniisan better

No, people should constantly be scraping by with more consumer goods to buy being your only motivation to keep living, you are not allowed to be financially responsible.

Yeah man, what would happen if we had things like libraries or friends where you can read manga for free?

I have no problem paying for manga, but I don't want to go out of my way to overpay and inconvenience myself to read manga. If Japan could actually get its head out of its ass then I would gladly pay for a service that had manga so long as it was released at the same time it was in Japan. The anime industry has gotten behind this lately and I have virtually stopped consuming any anime without paying for a service.

>streaming
>paying for platforms rather than products
>thinking that you can't buy things you have already enjoyed

Spotify, Netflix, Webtoons, those business models aren't great but sure is helluvalot better than Manga's dinosaur ass shooting itself in the foot and refusing to keep up with the times.

They do in Japan which does go against the premise they of all people need to pirate which is why they barely do

In Japan it's even common practice to read inside stores. Store owners allow it because they say it drives away would-be thieves.

Eat shit poorfag.
If you don't have the money then you don't deserve to read it.

You didn't answer the question.

The answer is that you need to eat shit and stop illegally consuming things.

Nope, that's you evading the question. Do you want to try again or do you accept being a failure that can't even answer a simple question?

All you guys need to know
>AirComiket is a huge success
>more publishers realize digital releases are free money
>Japan "suddenly" passes new anti-piracy laws aimed at manga
>very soon, every manga will have digital releases
>which means high quality digital scans for us
Sit back and enjoy japs getting cucked.

This thing isn't made for international audiences for whom the choice is between "pirate" and "don't read at all". It's made for Japanese people that have easy free access to this shit in public libraries and used book stores, and who pirate because they want to have it readily available at any time even without paying for it.

The international "pay in advance first, then read/watch" model for anime/manga is not how it works in Japan, something western moralfags tend to have a hard time grasping.

I really don't care anymore. I don't mind streaming. I don't have third world internet so the quality is no different from downloading it from a torrent site. I have no reason to pay for a product. I don't want a physical copy of stuff most of the time because all it will do is collect dust or space.

I pretty much buy the Licensed manga of series i even remotely enjoy. That is considering they exist. Even if few times the official product is worse compared to the scanlation I'd still buy them because

1. I like to reread physically
2. I want to support the Artists and this declining industry.

I wish i was born in France however. Now what Japan should already learn is stop depending on western companies and start simulpubing themselves using freelancers. If they can't then it's no use complaining. Also to anybody wanting a one Stop all-you-can-read subscription service, just remember that your wish is too entitled. Just like how there's Netflix, hulu, Amazon etc, there can't be a single subscription service for manga.

>The international "pay in advance first, then read/watch" model
is not how things have ever really worked for books. People lend books to each other. People follow authors they like. People go to libraries.
If people can avoid it, they don't blindly pay a lot of money for something only to find out on the third page that they don't like it.
Reading for free is not bad for business and never has been. It's free advertisement.

Dragging a business model of consumables into entertainment media is dumb.

>Also to anybody wanting a one Stop all-you-can-read subscription service, just remember that your wish is too entitled. Just like how there's Netflix, hulu, Amazon etc, there can't be a single subscription service for manga.
Yes, but here's the deal. I have a Netflix, Hulu, Amazon, Crunchyroll, and Funimation account. I have no problem for paying for multiple subscription services because they're always worth the money and they will have everything.

This. If manga had simultaneous releases in English like some shounen ones do I would gladly pay for it.

It's how it worked in burgerstan for ages. Like anime/manga? Go buy some shit blindly and hope you like it. ANN especially were always writing angry articles about how you were a criminal scum if you watched an episode of an anime without paying $35 for a DVD with 3 episodes on it first.

>It's how it worked in burgerstan for ages.
No, it wasn't.
>if you watched an episode of an anime without paying $35
See?
You know it yourself. There was piracy.

The fact that the big corps try to hunt down pirates does not mean that piracy wasn't the pillar the whole thing stood upon.

>which means high quality digital

Literally wont happen.

Yeah, but "buy shit sight unseen and hope you like it" was still the business model you were supposed to adhere to. Not everyone did, but there were far more moral busybodies at the time yelling at people for not doing so. Anime distributors weren't making money if people didn't buy their stuff without knowing what it was.

Believe it. Japan is finally waking up to digital distribution. It's no longer just TV broadcasts at inhumane hours and massive tanks that require you to leave the house.

>but "buy shit sight unseen and hope you like it" was still the business model you were supposed to adhere to.
You are missing my point.
>Dragging a business model of consumables into entertainment media is dumb.
I'm not arguing that this isn't done. I'm arguing that this is dumb, because it doesn't work.
>Anime distributors weren't making money if people didn't buy their stuff without knowing what it was.
They actually talked to pirates and asked them what they liked and wanted to see localized. They've always known their audience.
