Downloading vs. Streaming
Since this could apply to other things, I thought I'd put it here. Of course everyone here has downloaded media, but are there times when you decide to just stream it instead of saving it to your hard disc? If so, why? Additionally, which of the two do you prefer and why? Personally, I prefer to download media to my hard disc when I can. I think it's because, no matter what happens to my internet connection, I'll be able to watch whatever shows I have downloaded. But there are times (especially with anime or music) where a show is just too long and I can't justify taking up the disc space. Generally, if it's more than 15-20GB, I'm gonna stream it. Sometimes I'll cave and download it, though. However, when it comes to western cartoons, movies, or TV dramas (western or otherwise), I tend to stream them more often than I download them. There are, of course, exceptions to this, like if I can't find a stream of something I'll end up downloading it. Sometimes if I really want to see an anime
