Quote from Highway-STAR

I'd continue to buy manga. I buy more manga then I download anyway.

Same, the whole "couldn't afford manga" excuse is laughable, you have internet access and yet you can't afford to buy 1 volume of manga a month? Just another way people try to justify piracy, no matter how you go about it, it's still wrong.

I find scalnations to be on the lower end of the quality meter now compared to a year or two ago so I don't even bother with them anymore.

I'd just go back to reading books.( i think downloading manga clutters my hard drive ) ....and i dont have the money to buy more memmory for my pc. (I've never had a job and i'm a high school senior, how sad is that?)

The truth is i only read manga so i can become motivated to draw something myself since i'm starting to become such a huge procrastinator these days....

I use all the money I earn to help my struggling family, so there's a very good reason why I don't buy it.

There is NO way I could afford to buy all the manga I read and pay for gas. (5-20 volumes a week over the past 6 months)

What I would do if there were no scanlations is I would buy manga, scan, and upload them
