Do You Buy MLP Episodes Or Watch Them For Free?

[TheMaskMaker 65]

I'm an unbashed media pirate, but even in my blackened heart, I have plans to buy the actual episodes in DVD or Blu-Ray form.  It just won't be until sometime after I have my career going.

It would be a lie to say I didn't pirate the first four seasons myself (though to be fair, it downloaded them out of morbid curiosity alone, with no intention of becoming a brony). I did, however, go out and buy them on dvd, and rip them onto my computer. I love having tangible copies of media, especially my favorite shows.

I'm 100% a pirate.

I feel no guilt.  I'm a poor ass college student.  I'm broke as hell.  

Moreover, I'm an addict.

So, piratebay or kickasstorrents, either or... I've torrented seasons 1 through 4.

For season 5, I watched most on DailyMotion because I was lazy, and because I wanted to wait til the season was over to DL them all. But due to laziness I haven't actually gotten S5 DL'd yet.

Anyway, I've watched seasons 1 through 4 at least 7 times through, using VLC player, watching my torrented vids.

Do I feel bad about it?  Nope.

Maybe once I graduate college I'll buy all the DVDs.  But right now, I can't afford that.

I always watch episodes for free either on YouTube or dailymotion. Also Bronies react X3

I'd love to buy them, but there aren't that many options here in Holland. The only DVD boxes we get, is with like 3 episodes in them, for 10 euro (12 dollar) So that's a little too much for me.

 

Then I try to buy them with Google play, but I can't download that here. And Itunes is like 3 euro for one episode (4-5 dollars)

 

Really, the ways that I can buy them are way to overpriced. So I just watch them with Netflix, otherwise I just can't get them for a normal price.

I tend to watch them for free, usually on DailyMotion using my iPad. Sometimes I watch them on Netflix, if no one else is already watching TV (which is rare ). I'm thinking about buying the DVDs though, to help with profits I guess.

[DeadRightNowBoi 161]

I watch the show on Netflix. Wish I had money to buy the DVDs to support the creators :c

Question pertaining to this discussion, how does one watch Season 6 online?

[AtomicStone 723]

Just got a months free trial for Netflix. So will probably start watching episodes on there.

I watch the episodes on youtube. And IF I like them, I buy them.

[CandyStrike 603]

All of the pony I watch is paid for by my parents. I watch their cable and use their netflix.

[Zeal Crown 194]

I mean, I pay for Internet, so...

 

I try to watch the episodes live when they air for the first time, but sometimes I'm unable to wake up due to the timezone of them. When I miss them, I usually either watch the recorded one (dvr and such) or if I don't have access to my tv, I tend to pirate them through YouTube. So I guess I pay for them? I pay for the channel, so there's that I guess. I don't know what would be considered paying for them.

Freebies. I stream em'.i don't have the $$$ for DVDs, and don't have a credit card to buy them with, anyways.

[KatonRyu 1,026]

I watch them for free initially, though I might decide to buy them at some point in the future. I live in the Netherlands, however, and the Dutch dub is not something I care about.

[RavenholmZombie 1,329]

I watch them when they air on Discovery Family. Does that count as paying for them since I have to pay Dish Network every month in order to access Discovery Family?
