DLsite, a site for e-doujinshi and eromanga

While I do buy physical copies of doujinshi once in a blue moon, the majority of doujinshi I buy are digital. Most of them are bought from a place called DLsite (www.dlsite.com). They sell a gamut of downloadable goods including doujinshi, games, voice works, etc. The site has been around for at least over a decade; my earliest purchase is back in 2006! My main reasons for using them are their frequent sales and that a good chunk of their stuff are DRM free. There's plenty of DRM content but those are clearly labeled. Although I usually avoid DRM material, some are either from my favorite artists or too cheap to ignore so I can't help but buy a few of them. (shrug)

DLsite's closest competitor is probably DMM but I'm not a fan of them. They're like the Walmart/Amazon of digital goods and kinda shady too, IMO. It seems they may have dabbled in some piracy in the past before entering the legal game. Regardless, I'll probably have to get an account at some point as they seem to be the cheapest place to get the all-ages manga I'm looking for.

While you can get some regular manga at DLsite, the selection is far limited compared to DMM and other major digital book sellers. DLsite mainly specializes in doujin and ero works which is fine for me. My latest poison is actually voice works, mainly composed of either mimikaki or other ASMR-related stuff as well as some ecchi stuff too. Usually listen to them at work, heh.
