Or sometimes you can act like me, and quietly wait till the show is released on DVD. It's not so hard, just keep busy editing with stuff that is already released. Sooner or later that favorite show of yours will appear in the stores and then you can work on something good, while at the same time you'll probably have made some progress in editing skills working on AMVs you made while waiting for that show. So all the better to make something good out of something you waited so long to obtain.

The truth is, no one really cares where your source came from if your AMV is THAT good. Take a look at Whisper of the Beast, I didn't find anyone complaining about his fansubs.

If you can buy the DVD's because you simply can afford them, then buy them (It takes less time and you get better results) but as someone said, sometimes fansubs are required, I mean, Where I live you can't simply buy anime DVD's (Hellsing at much) and I don't think any website can ship stuff over here, so yeah...

That's just an excuse. They have websites that ship internationally.

But there is still a much better way than using fansubs - lend them from friends, rent them at a videotheque or something the like. If you want them for more than one project and still think it's too expensive, watch out for sales, check ebay etc.

Exactly. Even what Dokool said is true, but generally I quote this, when you want to edit a project for a "once-time" anime, you can simply rent it. It's cheap and actually you would completely change the situations. Fansubs are to avoid, always and completely, learn to rip dvds it's the best thing you can do. It's easy, the program the org suggest is free and you can get into really great results sometimes
