Gee, i didn't mean to spark the old Sub vs dub debate, All i was saying that i possibly underestimated how popular dubs are, and those fans must be upset by the remaining publishers (in the worst case) being sub only Though, i do find a lot of people prefer the version they heard first...

There is always NISA, they release really nice editions, as well as several releasing sub-only series... But around here sub only seems an unpopular option, i guess as a sub fan i underestimated the popularity of dubs. Being optimistic i'd say there is always potential for a new company...

I guess Funi are attempting to monopolise the western industry. Conspirator (may have no relation to real life) mode: they already made a backdoor deal with bandai, but other companies are being more stubborn. So they busted the lawyers out. Next target; crunchyroll. CR would pretty much...

On the PS3, i've noticed several films have options for various languages and subtitles. So the decision to be english dub only is a conscious decision, ether on the part of the publishers or netflix

Oh, uk-anime is reporting that beez are shut down too

Anime's main issue is it can't recoup the licensing costs via broadcasting, it's pretty much a straight to video industry... Until streaming. With streaming publishers now have a direct means of gaining a broadcast type of income via ads or subscription fees. Being a niche it is something...

Times are hard, i personally don't budget more than £15 a month for buying, though sometimes i build up a couple of months to get a bigger box set, i imagine it's pretty tough for a lot of people out there. And quite a few rather not buy at all. I like to say fansubbing is the problem, but it...

Does cutting the quality of the actual discs content count as cost saving? A few hours authoring and encoding can't be that crippling a cost, it feels like their guys are more lazy than anything. A well encoded DVD still looks very good, though, many BD/DVD and HDTVs have sophisticated...

Oh yeah, i forgot to say... Manga's authoring of BDs could be improved. Frequently their subtitles lack boarders (making them hard to see under certain circumstances), i would hope they could update the subtitles via BDlive to make them more readable. Also... they are almost always...

Whoever tweets for Manga is incredibly unprofessional, they use it as their personal account rather than providing anything substantial. I guess they might have the green light for it, by making themselves 'relatable' but they guy always comes off as kind of an ****. It'd be nice if they...
