Re: OP

[catystorm]

The issue here is, though, is that people change. I used to be very much like that, I read scans specifically because I was working long hours and barely making ends meet. Food > manga and all that. Being a poor student does that to someone. Why pay at all when it's available online for free?

Any and every time I've encountered that attitude, it came from younger fans. And young fans DON'T have excess money to spend on manga, and if they're anything at all like most teenagers I know telling them off and "judging" them for it is just going to spur the opposite response. Fandom gets younger every day.

Is this a war that's going to be won on all fronts? No. But I think that the tactics need to be shifted. Maybe that's just me.

(My biggest pet peeve is the people who read the manga in the store, it's actually contributed a great deal to me no longer buying some manga, because I can't get a damn volume that hasn't had the spine bent or greasy fingerprints all over the pages. I really wish stores would go back to shrink-wrapping the volumes.)
