I think in order for it to be a success you'd need to be hosting things that aren't so easy to find. Most of the stuff you've currently uploaded is readily available by torrent anyway. Since it is slower, there's no reason to use your bandwidth when I could find this stuff elsewhere. I like the idea a lot, but it's so much harder to host a comprehensive anime FTP than it is to host a comprehensive music FTP, because of the filesizes. You're never going to be able to host a similar proportion of what is 'out there' compared to a music FTP.
Props for trying though. Jam it back in, in the dark.

At the very least I'd counsel against offering Bleach and Naruto. Anyone who can't get those from elsewhere just isn't trying...
There's nowhere I can't reach.

If you must insist on HTTP downloads, that site doesn't seem to have any obvious drawbacks. How it can afford the bandwidth cost is beyond me, though. I wonder if their episodes are reduced in size (and therefore quality) by some method or another.
I won't be signing up, mind you... I'm just curious how they can manage to offer what they do. This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
