BT isn't evil as long as it respects the moral rule of no licensed anime. Imo the real fans will get their hands on the anime they like one way or another, be it bittorrent, irc or any other means. BT is off course easy to use what will draw in alot of ppl who wouldn't have bothered to learn irc anyway.

But exposing anime to a bigger audience will also increase it popularity and the mroe people that watch it, the more that'll buy DVD, manga, merchandise, because popularity and sales also go hand in hand.

It's true there are alot more leechers through BT then you would have when it wasn't around, but you also have alot more fans that'll buy stuff.

BT is a great program (and animesuki a great site, imagine having to go through all those fansub sites every day) as long as you dont forget to buy animeproducts of shows you like. Support the anime scene if you are able to do so, even if it is only by a single DVD or manga!!!
