Honestly, I believe and know its bad to pirate stuff, but I do all of it anyways.
I buy Anime series I like when they are finally out on DVD anyways, but most of the time the subs and dubs are horribly translated by companies in the USA, they leave out a lot of Japanese culture items, because an average american wouldn't know what it ment. Most fansubs will stick to Japanese themes and culture items in the translation. Also I like seeing anime that hasn't been censored on TV.

I have always know that companies thought it was fine to fansub new releases of japanese anime as long as they stop and remove the content once it was licensed in north america.
It frusterates me that this would disappear, it can take along time for series to be released on DVD, and even longer to be shown on TV. With fansubs I can get a new episode from a series usually within a week and at good quality and clear translation from the effort that fansubs do for free.
