While surveys are nothing new from distributors, networks and all sorts of commercial entities, we haven’t seen one come down from The Anime Network before. But they’ve done just that this week as they have a new survey out that asks some pretty basic questions. It’s generally designed to gauge their actual audience and since it doesn’t ask anything about what kind of streaming you do, whether you use them or competing services, it’s kind of surprising that it’s focused mostly on physical media mor ethan anything else with only one digital distribution question at the end.
