Yeah the typesetting skills in some of those fan groups put official localizations to shame. I understand people wanting to throw money at the "official" version when there is an easy way to do so, but personally the effort and quality on official anime localizations are so piss poor compared to groups of dudes doing it for free as a passion project in their mom's basement in 2005 that it is hard for me to conclude that they deserve anything at all. Anyone who wants to support the show can buy the source material if they want; more probably goes to them than if you pay a monthly sub to Crunchyroll anyway.
