I'm not going into the holier then thou skit because I download stuff myself too.
But I am part of a group that still supports the old code saying "If it's licenced and published, stop leeching and buy it!"
Especially if said disk costs no more than 5 quid.
Proof
Aside from that, I'd like to keep these forums clean of any kind of warez, which includes fansubs, fanlations, DVD and BD rips and the like.
(Besides that, even though it doesn't have to do much with MP, I am a comitee member of an organization active in the anime industry and I do hold close ties with many European and Japanese anime releasing companies.)
