*fallenangel8 notes -I do not support or hate Crunchyroll I am only reporting on the news as a neutral party.
As reported on the anime-pulse podcast on friday Gonzo is starting a revolution!!
The Japanese media company GDH has announced that the YouTube, Crunchyroll, and BOST online video services will be streaming new titles from GDH's Gonzo animation studio — worldwide and on the same day as their Japanese broadcast. The video streams, which will be in Japanese with English subtitles, will start with The Tower of Druaga: the Aegis of Uruk and Blassreiter anime series.

Hi Quility For Everyone on CrunchyRoll
The following is a direct post form the Crunchyroll website by a crunchyroll administrator
"hihi guys,
i have some really GREAT news! im sure some of you have noticed already, but i figured out a way so everyone can watch the hi-quality streams ^_^ but it requires a little work on your side by installing a new Bittorrent client (its pretty easy and i know many of you already use it). cuz its p2p, it should be faster for you guys to stream and it will cut back on the bandwidth cost a lot! if you click on the high quality/h264 link, it'll take you to the download page to install if you don't have it yet! (edit: well, for some videos u dont need it..only the really popular videos)"
for current star supporters, nothing will change - you won't need to use p2p
