Anime really needs to start coming out in sensible box sets. They should have Blu-Ray releases where they put 50+ episodes into a half-size disk container, or similar. 26 episodes per standard DVD case, that means about 25 of those just to catch up with the current Japanese release, which could only be 2/3 of the way through for all we know.
@ReZourceman, how can torrents be a problem? Not that I'm advocating such an action, but let's pretend it's unrelated.
They only go up to half-way through because a) it's not finished and b) official English releases are a long way behind.
