well if your just considering the western market because its the part of the world that can mostly pay then ye i agree that streaming sites are better than torrents for them, and i think CrunchyRoll is starting to be popular and popularity means profitable in simple thinking

Spoiler for but kinda offtopic and wishful thinking:

but kinda offtopic and wishful thinking, if only anime studios can promote their anime like what fansubs does in which they can provide free watch of their anime then its good, the anime studios will just make sure that its in low quality too but still watchable like 360p at 40-60mb filesize for a 24 minute show, i said torrents because its kinda like low cost to zero cost for them to promote their anime and 360p is like the standard streaming quality that is just bearable to watch and just good for promotional purposes so watching the 360p releases will then urge the fans to buy the DVD/BD disc that is in glorious true HQ/HD, and while at it i say make their BD and DVD all have english subs too and make them available for online purchase because im inclined to think that westerners like buying more original products (that means buying straight from japan) so that maybe another reason why they hate english dub
