Anime downloads

[Silmaril]

I recently became interested in manga and I'm presently reading Naruto and Bleach. I've decided to take the next big step and download anime. But I don't want to go through the terrible bother of bittorrent and irc and all that jazz. Does anyone know where I can get direct downloads of any nice anime you think I should watch?

P2P is virtually the only way to get anime online. I’ve never been able to find any decent direct downloads.

I would just buy the DVD's, it's much more satisfying, and much more legal.

Err, if you don't wanna deal with BitTorrent, you're pretty much doomed. You're not going to find many direct downloads of anime, and if so it'll just be a couple episodes at a time.

[Shoeberto]

Yeah, you need P2P. And BitTorrent is great, unless you're on dial-up or at a university where it's blocked.
