How Fans Shared anddistributed Anime

Before streaming, fans had to get creative to share anime. Physical media and emerging digital tools formed an underground distribution network that eventually changed the industry.

VHS Tape Trading andCopying

With limited official releases, tape trading became thee backbone of global anime distribution.
