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.

while i don't condone hit and running, i think adc is one of those few sites whose community might benefit from it. from the seeder's standpoint anyway.

Free servers are slightly slower during the summer, but premium servers should be slightly nicer. AFAIK, it has one of the best selection on the internet. (Archive wise) for Asian media (Movies, dramas and tv stuff). It should not be as bad as flash based youtube. We've heard reports of people streaming with P3 computers with like 256mb ram. Yeah... Also, as long as your internet is over 1MB, you're usually ok. But with the recent loads on the servers, not entirely sure how it will be on your end. I personally spent the extra 10 bucks to go on the premium server. (75 hours). I think it's worth it, but some other people don't feel it's worth it (so they use a free account).  

If registration is closed right now, wait another week or two to see what happens. (Admin is doing some reorganization). If not, send me a PM.

But for actual dling, ADV was probably the best, but it was a HORRIBLE community. I gave up after a while. It's very much about ePenis. The only other area might be isohunt or d-addicts. But I've never had good seeder experience with d-addicts.

AznV.tv sounds good. But what about the quality? Is like regular Youtube? HD? Another thing, is there any way to "capture" the streaming and save it locally in the HDD? That would be really nice :)

ADV? The defunct company that released Anime for the US market? ??? Or is there another ADV?

Not exactly. 1080p movies are generally at 8-12 GB, but 720p usually sit at ~5 GB. At any rate, HD rips are worth every byte. You download ~8 GB but you have Full HD. With DVDs you download the same and you only have crappy 480p. And if the source is DVD, the rip is much much smaller. For example, the Higurashi movie by Piggymoo is only 1.52 GB.

^ That

Why they can't be an "Asian H264 Club" is beyond my comprehension. And on top of that there's people that actually bother to build the DVD versions of some things, like taking the fansubs and making everything in the DVD format (MPEG2, VobSub, and all that). What's the gain? Nothing. Not even quality as many fansub rips are of same quality as the source (or even better with filtering) or there's a BD of it. You just waste space, bandwidth and time. Maybe they are DVD players (the ones that hook to a TV) aficionados. Which is pointless anyway, as today there are several media players that play H264, like WDTV Live.

Agree. But doing hit 'n run would get you banned pretty quick :-\

killazys:
Asian movies... I don't know man. gotta try h33t, isohunt, etc. for dramas, there's dramawiki which directs you to the group's site. At that point, you DDL (usually). for example, withs2 is a good korean fansub group.

As far as I know, there's not purely "asian media" torrent community, although many movie/regular TV trackers have some asian content..

isukianime:
i suggest daddicts. The only problem is it's an open tracker so there are few seeders. It takes a few weeks to get some of those torrents.
