I have used many many sites int he past and for some shows I still do. However, whenever i have a choice between a different site and VIP- I go with VIP everytime. The setup of the seasons and episodes ensure that I won't miss an episode. The viewing history allows me to see what I have already watched. I rarely ever have problems with slow streaming like other sites. The video quality is also excellent, particularly compared to other sites that use video sharing sites to store the shows. There are many reasons to like this site and if I didn't believe it was a good reliable service, I never would have become associated with it through being a moderator.
I absolutely understand that not everyone has had a great experience. You mention complaints on the forum- keep in mind that we have hundreds of thousands of viewers and very few complaints. Even if we had 1000 complaints a month (and our complaint volume is actually a tiny fraction of that)- that would still leave around 199,000 happy viewers. It is my thought that there are some people, for whatever reason, that simply are unable to enjoy VIP as it should be. This could be a variety of factors, from internet providers, computers, to server load. I am inclined to think, however, that with the volume of happy viewers we get to the volume of unhappy viewers we get, that a majority of problems are ont he viewer side. In fact, if you read the threads complaining on this forum, you will find that the majority have been resolved.
