Would like to know if you would wait longer for your Shows, Or....

i'm wondering if you would rather wait longer for your shows.
or would you rather have them as quickly as you can.

if the cappers took a little longer and got the shows right, 1st time (fully
checked).

we would have to wait longer for them to do that.
so would you wait 24hrs or would you want them an hour after they have aired,
(no checking).

i myself would rather have them right the first time i downloaded them.
even if they was only uploaded 24hrs after the show has aired.

that way we would not get as many propers and re-encodes.
saving download times and disappointments as the show goes out of sync half way
through.

i'm wondering what you think on this?.

(si)(uk) :-)

and /me thinks santabj types too much on irc lol

hehe jk i had to 🙂

i'd definitely rather wait - there are many things about the scene model that i
dislike. but it's not going to happen sadly.

i'd rather have them asap. i'm looking at the front page right now and out of 20
or 30 torrents there is only one proper release. i really don't think it's that
big of a problem. plus, if a proper is needed, it's usually out within 24 hours
of the first release anyway. anyone who is so worried about dl'ing 175 or 300
mb's and then finding out they need to do it again could just wait 24 hours
right now. problem solved.

not to mention one of the biggest hassles is people asking when something will
be released, or if it will be released. if you add a 24 hour waiting period
that's only going to increase.

i really don't see the point in having everyone wait 24 hours to check things.
as i said, a proper is usually out within that timeframe right now -- if people
wanted to wait for perfection they can do that right now. there is nothing
stopping people who are annoyed by sync issues or whatever from waiting 24 hours
right now to see if a proper is upped. or just wait a few hours and read
comments. honestly, if it's that big of a problem for these people, why don't
they just wait, read comments, and then dl when someone gives the all clear? as
for the rest of us i think we all love it that we can get shows as soon as
possible. i don't see the point in delaying things because 1 file in every 20
have a few minor issues. thanks.

oh yeah (to make a long message longer) i forgot about spoilers. it's hard
enough avoiding them now (especially with the reality shows) but tacking on
another 24 hours certainly isn't going to help. a lot of people (especially in
other countries) enjoy being able to talk about these shows at pratically the
same time as they air. meanwhile a lot of people in n. america enjoy being able
to talk about the shows at work/school whatever the next day even if they
couldn't for whatever reason watch them on tv.

ditto - asap.

the only time i would wait for a tv show is if it was going to air in the uk 24
hours after its us broadcast, as by the time i'd downloaded it, it would be on
tv anyway. that is the only time when i will not download and wait for a tv show.

i am also in the uk and i dont have a problem waiting a bit for shows, what a
would like though is too be confident that i would be able to get the show on
the same day every week, i want to be able to sit down each week same time
same place. i dont care if the show was on in the us 5 minutes or 5 days
earlier, as long as its the same day each week.

asap for me too.

the only show that i really care about, though, is veronica mars, since it's on
the cw which i don't have and it's not on any of the local station here in
canada/ and i'll usually like to watch it before i go to sleep that day.

thanks for the input :-)

i'd like to d/l things once and yeah sometimes theirs no problems with any of
the files.
but some times there seems to be quite a few that's too big or has sync
problems or even just something silly.
i don't mind if the show was aired 24hrs before it comes out on eztv as long as
they come out on the same day each week (like you said before).
that way people woulden't be asking if somethings going to come out ect.
i'm not picking relay, im just curious to know how other people view propers &
re-encodes, scene rules ect.
i'm glad they cap the shows for us and they do a good job most of the time,
(better than what i could do).

oh! yeah.. we get them for free too also (without adverts).
so keep your views coming if you have the time and don't mind committing.

bye for now (si)(uk) ;-)

while right now there might be only a couple of propers, when all the shows are
in full swing there are many more errors. i agree that the cappers shouldn't
wait 24 hours to release, but if they released the 350mb files asap and waited
maybe a few hours to check things over on the larger files, we could all be happy.

i am in the us so it doesn't matter anyway to me because i can watch them on tv,
but if i was stuck somewhere else in the world that is how i would want it.

i'd rather have it as soon as possible. nothing like the feeling of having the
download finish before the show even airs in my time zone.

+ i'd say about 80% of the nuked releases are nuked for some stupid scene
technicality and are totally watchable to the people who are just going to
delete them after anyway

i would rather wait an extra few hours (upwards of a day) for a perfect
version, but then again i am from the uk and would otherwise have to wait
anything from 6weeks, 3months, a year or never get it here.

i find most of the nukes that i notice only after i downloaded them, it's
something silly, like 1/2 second of advert left in, or a mb or two over the
limit, most you can watch and it changes nothing, and sure getting an advert
or something can be annoying, but if you are archiving, it's not hard to re-
edit your selves, or lets face it, with most people modern speeds, it takes no
time to redownload a proper.

i would like it right away as soon as they can get it out and then be able to
grab the hr with out errors within 24-48hrs. if every episode came out a day
late it would be okay or even just later in the morning so i can watch it by the
time i get home from school or have eaten dinner then its okay. not like i can
stay up till 3-4am to watch, but if its a full 24hrs its gona be days later till
i can watch it.


argrow: depends on where you live in canada i get v mars on cw channel 23 but i
leave near buffal (toronto), also toronto has a local station that airs it ch.
52, some random independant station.

i'm in saskatoon and i only have basic cable. to get the cw, i need to pay an
extra $20 and i just can't afford that right now. good thing gilmore girls airs
on global or my tuesday nights would be really busy.

i know about the vmars in toronto, but i think the channel is only for gta and
hamilton only.

i'd rather wait a little longer and have a checked one.

it doesn't matter if it's 1 hour or 1 day a wait, i'm lucky i don't have to
wait 3years...

anyway thanks for all the people that take so much time too get us suckers
worldwide great shows.

merry x-mas too you & the other suckers.
