Clarification
Of course not. It's still distributing the stuff; that's piracy. pirate3 Look, no matter what, distributing another's intellectual property without their permission is illegal. :shame: In fact, in reply to an earlier post, even posting pictures on a site from anime is illegal. The thing is, some companies like some postings of materials on people sites because it gives them free advertising-that is, it exposes others to the medium/to that particular anime. But even this doesn't mean your safe. For one thing, anyone who has bought licenses to the anime can sue you for using the material, even if they aren't the creators. There really isn't a way to get around this stuff. Usually people just aren't found out. I' actually doing the research on starting up servers to stream shows, anime, movies, etc. and because of the scale I'm looking at I'll have to generate revenues and will probably have to purchase liscenses to show the stuff; that sucks. :doh!: But that's just the way things work. When someone makes a product they tend to expect payment for it.
