This is wonderful, i can already see an entire range of clips i want to watch, yet when i click, i see a horrid "brits only" sign...
Anyone posted torrents yet ?
finally a post deserving and in need of mod points, and i have none.
Thankyou for a wonderful post that mirrors my frustration with the mass produced crap on television.
please mod parent up!

You get used to it fairly quicky.
Dubs are on a whole, god aweful. I've been watching anime for about 2 or 3 years now. Reading subtitles at the same time as watching is as natural as listening to the english for me.
I got used to it pretty fast, and after i heard some examples of dubs, i've never been tempted to switch back.
Occasionally i miss something, but it takes no effort at all to pause and go back 2 seconds...
Well i moved away from auckland last year, to the lower part of south island, and this didn't affect my internet access at all:)
And to everyone out there from other countries, telecom is evil evil evil...
Most of us have datacaps of 10gb, if you download more then this you either get charged extra, or your speed gets cut to dial up speed (5kb\s or 10kb\s). The most common speed is 256K, which costs around $50 a month.
1mb plans are about $90-100 a month, most with the same limited cap of only 10gb !
Oh, and you have to pay a $100 switching fee to change to a different ISP, a $100 connection fee to get connected in the first place, and $40 for a phoneline from the evil that is telecom.
prices = NZ$

mod this post up, very informative and interesting.
Take a look at Freelancer sometime. It has everything you mentioned and more. It is awesome.. I think it came out in 2003, but don't quote me.
