My third favorite anime download membership site is Movie Distro. The reason why this site is ranked No.3 is obvious: the design is horrible and unprofessional. It might look like a scam, but it definitely isn’t! It seems that the owners do not care a lot about design and a professional look. They focus on their database.
They run 5 servers filled with 5000+ Gigabytes (!!!) of anime movies, series, drama and manga. You won’t find fancy wallpaper, ringtones and games. This is for the real hardcore anime lover! You can find stuff you won’t find anywhere else and the database is updated daily.
Currently you can choose from:
# Total Anime Series: 959+
# Total Manga Series: 523+
# Total Drama Series: 412+
Movie Distro offers direct anime downloads. A direct download simply means you download the file straight through their server, not through a P2P program or non-standard protocol. It’s as simply as clicking on a link, no confusing settings to configure, and no need to worry about firewalls ( almost all firewalls will allow web traffic. ). You don’t need any special programs or configurations to use their service.
The majority of the files are in AVI format using DivX or XviD codecs. But, some of the newer series / episodes may use MP4 or MKV format.
The file size ranges between 175MBs and 250MBs per file, but Movies, OVAs, and specials are sometimes a lot bigger. Movies are normally 1.5 Gigabytes.
It should also be noted that all anime are in Japanse with English subtitles.
For most of the series the subtitles are large, crisp, and easy to read. These aren’t anything like those crap “Hong Kong Subs” you may have seen. Not only do the subtitles look nice, but they also make sense. The subtitlers have an extensive knowledge of English; reading their work is a real joy.
Another plus is that when you are a member you can request series to be uploaded.
You get unlimited access for a one time payment of just $37. While you are a member of Movie Distro you can download as much as you want. Doesn’t seem like much if you realize that it’s costing them thousands of dollars a month to run the site.
