If you want to get the best quality, use Direct Download, IRC, or Torrent. You can obtain full web release quality on a streaming site that scrapes the official site API, such as KickAssAnime for Crunchyroll and Bilibili content. Otherwise, it is hard to maintain the full quality while managing space & traffic. You can network stream files from direct download, irc and torrents.
