Asian movies/series BakaBT 'style'
fohfoh:
I'd say aznv.tv is about 480 youtube level of quality. No, you cannot rip the stream. It's against the rules. (The admin actually has all the stuff hosted himself, so doing such a thing kills the bandwidth of the servers).
Another streaming option is Crunchyroll or Viiki. As for looking up subbers... that's another option vs d-addicts.

realize that BD rips can be exceptionally larger than DVD rips, thus killing your ratio even more and taking much longer to download.

Those fucking DVD9 or w/e format which is like fucking 9GB per movie. Fuck that shit. I hated ADC so much. You literally spent 3-6 days if it was seeded to dl it, then another 3-6 months trying desperately to reseed that shit. You were treated like shit if you didn't have a dedicated 25MBit or higher line.

i gotta disagree somewhat with you. yes; keeping a ratio can be challenging but there are tons of golden torrents (freeleech) to choose from and like bakabt getting in on a popular torrent early will help the ratio-ly challenged. like just now i dl- eva 2.22 (dual layer-freeleech) i am burning the dvd and shall keep the 1080 rip on my mac. i have also requested a few dead torrents which members have seeded. like Sol Bianca etc.
i have found so much awesome & rare shit there it is ridiculous.
as far as blu-ray rips- adc demands complete iso- a blu-ray movie can easily top over 25 gigs- so that would totally decimate most peoples ratios.
sites i have used with limited success:
ccfbits - in Chinese.
avistaz
personally i snag from kickasstorrents/isohunt etc.
@fohfoh- where are those servers located- streaming video illegally is like a lawsuit waiting to happen.

By the time I left ADC, free leech torrents weren't even worth bothering. If you didn't have a 1.0+ ratio, you were fucked. By the time you hopped on, you'd be sitting in something like 52 seeds vs 1-2 leechers if you were lucky. Then, you check who seeders are.... assholes with 3+ ratios and the like. You were lucky to get like 5MB of seeding done on a 5GB torrent. It was sad as hell. I even coordinated with another user to have him leech from me a certain torrent and I would leech a torrent that individual was going to dl. We got a whopping .1 ratio from helping each other out. <_< yay. But I left in probably approx 07 or 08. Dunno if it has changed since then. (Left with maybe a ratio at about .83 or something. I got fed up)
There's a reason why this site is underground. Not a perfect way to deal with things... but that's how the admin runs the show. (He pretty much keeps the rest of the users in the dark about many things until recent events... even the mods know little about the inner workings of the site). Though, we all know the servers are hosted in North America.
EDIT: Fixed the ADC thing.

ADC (not ADV) now has a .5 ratio. which is quite reasonable. most people whom have ridiculous ratios are either living in Japan or South Korea or have their own seedboxes. i am not saying it's perfect or as well seeded as Baka but it still remains the best choice for Asian movies.
i do remember in the past crunchyroll streaming quite a collection of Asian movies before they got all fucked up by going legit.
fohfoh:
The .5 thing must be new since I left ADC. I agree though, they had a lot of rare stuff, but it wasn't a very nice community at the time. But beyond the ridiculous ratio thing, even the free leech torrents not helping at all, it was a crap place to try and get a ratio at the time. I dunno. Maybe I'm spoiled by the way things are here as well as JPS, but yeah. No leechers to fix ratio = suck. Even demonoid at least it was easy to keep a ratio.
