Anime fans are constantly on the prowl for the latest season of anime video downloads. While there are many series like Naruto, Evangelion, Full Metal Alchemist and so on available in nicely packed video collections you can find in retail stores, watching them on PC remains a nice option for the adolescent especially those who spend hours on the internet. There are places online where you can download your favorite anime videos for free or for a fee. We will take a look at these options and give you some clues as to how to select a great download site for anime video downloads.
Free is not always good
You may be able to download some videos at several fan sites for free. These are anime fansubs ie anime videos that are subtitled by fans for the local audience. Unfortunately, many of these sites are plagued by problems. You may expose your computer to viruses and other harmful adware and spyware. Many of these also offer incomplete videos or in worst cases, corrupted files.
There are now paid membership sites where membership for unlimited access to anime video downloads cost less than $30. Why go to the trouble of downloading free when you can do so safely and conveniently for so little money? We will look at some characteristics of a good site.
1. Wide Collection of Anime Video Downloads
Since you are paying, then you should choose one with a wide selection of anime series. There are some that offer you at least a few hundred series. These sites are worth a second look.
2. Cheap Pricing
Needless to say, the price is important and you should compare around if you can spare the time. Anything that costs more than $40 needs reconsideration.
3. Multi-Genre of Anime
If the site offers both old and new anime videos, this is a rare deal. Most of the time, the download sites offer either new or old videos but not both. Outstanding ones even have those versions that are no longer available on the shelves or in the market. You will find one through my recommended link below.
4. Safe Downloading
I shared about how risky it can be to download anime videos at free fan sites. With the paid membership services, you need not worry about this at all.
5. Fast Download Speeds
Another important factor is the download speeds. If you have any experience downloading music files online, you should know how heavy the media files for videos are. The site that you choose must allow you to download the anime videos quickly so that you can watch earlier.
6. Media Files Other than Anime Video Downloads
Stretch your dollar further by choosing a site that gives you more than just the ability to download anime videos. It would be ideal if you can find one where they give you extras like anime movies, manga movies and more.
Do such quality sites for anime video downloads exist at all? Yes they do. Find out more at my anime blog.
