Timers vs Full Audio/Visuals
Hey guys! So you might have noticed Monday's Symphogear ep came a few days early - this is because we wanted to trial out a timer method as opposed to full audio/visuals. Unfortunately the copyright landscape has gotten terrible even on Vimeo, with creators that we personally know getting copyright strikes for reactions. And like YouTube, 3 strikes leads to a channel takedown.
So to avoid this, we're exploring as many options as possible, including:
- Timer-based reactions on Vimeo
- Full audio/visuals on alternate hosting services (such as Google Drive. FaceBook, MEGA)
We know that timer-based reactions aren't the ideal way to consume content so we'd definitely love to continue doing full audio/visuals if at all possible.
We're leaning towards FaceBook but if you have any suggestions, recommendations or feedback, please do let us know. We would really like to hear your input on this.
Thanks so much for your continued support guys! Honestly means the world to us :)

MEGA & Pixeldrain are good alternatives but if you are going to go with the timer, then it'll be better to include a bit of the episode's bottom so we can see the subs and synchronize easier.
Yeah that's a good idea, at first we were cautious of using any copyrighted content at all (even just the subs haha) so we were put off against it aha, but after weighing the risks/benefits, we've decided to go with full audio/visuals on MEGA :) Signing up as we speak! Thank you for your feedback! :)
Personally I am fine with downloading the full video via MEGA or Pixeldrain. Didn't use facebook for video watching, so I can't comment on that. Seems fine so far.
Thank you for the feedback! We're looking into MEGA and Pixeldrain a bit more but we're leaning more towards MEGA :) We'll likely trial this out asap to see how it goes! Thanks again for the suggestion :D
