HDTV TELEVISIONS

Online video streaming has made all the difference for fans with an interest in catching the latest anime episodes from their favorite series. At one point, they really had just two options. Either spend a lot on DVDs from the many available series, or be subject to the whims of television networks who broadcasted a few series that were generally geared to quite a young audience. When streaming anime became available online, these fans had another option, and more chances to see their favorite episodes for free.

As video streaming technology became big on the internet through the 2000s, the best-loved episodes of an anime series became much easier to see. Many series were placed online, and people not only could watch streaming anime but could download it to their computers as well. Of course, this immediately created copyright issues, because most people who put episodes online did it without the permission of the licensed holders; the big distribution companies. And those who downloaded episodes were not paying for them.

The first impulse of distribution companies was to sue everybody who placed unlicensed anime episodes online. This still continues to some extent, but most companies realized quickly it would become very expensive, and bring bad publicity to attack their own fans on that scale. Instead, they chose ways of working with fans rather than against them, and created video portals where people could watch their favorite anime for free, and download and own higher quality videos for a fee. Those who simply never had the money to fork over to the corporations were not shut out, but the companies’ real target, people with cash, were reached more easily. It was a win-win situation for everyone.

Streaming technologies have allowed another new trend for watching anime episodes. Often the impetus for illegal downloads was that it sometimes took new series three or four years to get from Japan to North America. But the latest development sees companies like GDH/Gonzo and FUNimation streaming anime from certain series on their video portals mere hours after each episode has aired in Japan. This answers fans’ desire to see new series immediately, often making them more willing to wait for later downloads. The new technologies have made fans much happier, and allowed distributors some new options as well.
