AstroBoy Online Forums

The only voice I don't reeeaally like is that of Shunsaku Ban? Like, his actor is too young; he sounds like some regular guy I'd meet in the supermarket in Nigeria. He does give it his all, though, so I can't dislike him. It is a little off, yeah. I think the English voice cast is excellent, especi...

Dude, it's in France.

Channels TV posted about alternative streams at http://m.channelstv.com/ Seems to be the player they used to have on their site. Maybe that one has less issues (like the constant stuttering and loadings this week). It also has the correct aspect ratio (!) so I will default to this from now on.

I only mentioned the stream every time, not the actual broadcast.

I'm not trying to justify piracy here, I just don't think that term fits what is actually happening, at least as far as our members intentions are concerned. Our members should certainly know better though. What do producers think when they see complete episodes on YouTube? That a complete series t...

It's a gray area, true enough. Nah, sharing recordings is not a gray area. Especially online.

But ulti...

This show is not available for sale Watching it on the channel counts as a sale. You're giving them viewership. and we don't actually have a "complete" episode to look at. There was only one line of dialogue missing at most. Less than 10 seconds. I would suggest that it is highly unlikely anyone he...

Turning ABO into a piracy ring doesn't sound much better.

How about watching the show when it airs?

I really appreciate everyone who records the show, but we should be sharing files secretly outside of the web.

I just remembered... you can actually pause the stream. I didn't want to use the superior Microsoft Expression Encoder 4 that some people like Fauna use because of its 10 minute limit for files, but if you can simply pause when the 10 minutes are over, and resume when you're ready to record again, t...
