there's a nice group of mac (and windows) users who hang out at www.nowherenow.org - they have a kdx server with anime and manga and stuff.

Yeah there's more mac-anime fans. The way i get my anime is beg one of your friends to give one to you and then trade it for other series.

I "borrow" my mom's laptop and use kazaa... it takes a couple of hours to download an episode, and I leave it on all day downloading just about anything I can find ^_^ then I use my external hard drive and transfer all the files from her PC to my mac and I decode them with DivX

I'm thinking about downloading Virtual PC just so I can run Kazaa or Edonkey on my mac all the time but I'm not sure how fast the downloads will be (I expect them to be a bit slower though... but I haven't tried VPC since I got the new iMac and started using OS X but I completely loathed the one I had before >_<). File sharing programs are the only things I like about Windoze * shudders*

Anyone know where to get anime faces for Audion? Besides the Audion website itself...

There is a Mac OS X "BitTorrent" client which works great. I download Windows AVIs of the fansub shows we like to watch with BitTorrent and then run them through an application called "DivX Doctor II" which corrects the sounds loss AVIs often get in QuickTime when they're played on a Mac. I've been able to watch all 47 episodes of Naruto this way. (Check out Toriyama's World for the torrent files of episodes 1 through 37.) BitTorrent is wonderful. ^__^
