I buy mine, I tried the online thing once I realized I needed to read more than I needed to watch it computerized - but eh. It was a big purchase but some months back now, I bought the first ten volumes of Bleach and Naruto, each. I'll have to save up to do that again, but I can only recommend something similar, because it's nice to have your own copy. Or..maybe that's my book obsession talking xD. If I like it enough, I'll want my own copy.
