popular anime and anime torrent sites?

[grittykitty]

anyone know of any popular sites for anime torrents and such? i'm thinking something specifically along the lines of anime (ie. not demonoid or pirate bay). also, any popular anime news and info sites, such as anime news network?

I found some rarer ones on this site (good for Japanese games and such too):

Buy your Anime like a real man. That is unless it's no longer being licensed or distributed by a domestic company.

Seriously though I don't support this as every year we get less and less Anime in the states (let alone any high quality showstoppers) because distribution companies are bleeding money left and right due to all the torrenters and pirates.

thanks for the replies everyone. and thanks for the comment, mmx. the company i work for is actually looking to advertise on sites such as these, which is why i was asking.

Oh, that's cool.

Yeah, then I'd recommend using those sites of you're trying to get some ad's side banners etc... posted up.

Personally, I use AnimeSuki. Very useful

i dont download them personally. i just stream them. (kumby.com is good) and if i like it and i have the money i try to get the complete box sets. they are expensive but mostly worth it like my favorite anime mushishi.
