So technically, we can see the entire first volume of True Tears for free  |

| So they're trying to make it more available so that people will lay down $270 for a mediocre show. Even if I was going to watch it, I'd stick with fansubs. |

I haven't found either of the series I bought from them to be mediocre.
Demon Prince Enma was an excellent horror title.
I'm enjoying Super Robot Wars very much. |

| Least they made this available to Canada as well. I'll probably try the series but I doubt I'll buy it. |

It would be nice if those were streamed too along with Gunbuster 1 and 2 and FREEDOM. |

| If dot anime gets a UK branch, then maybe you'll get your stream. |

| All I can say is they had better include other operating systems Like Linux and Mac OS X. If not the will continue to be making bad business choices like EVERY OTHER F***ING COMPANY that fails to support certain sections of it's audience. THAT GOES TO ADV, FUNI(at least their's works on my MAC), AND ALL THE MAINSTREAM COMPANIES IN THE DRM AND ONLINE VIDEO ON DEMAND SERVICES! |

| For those of you ranting about how they should or shouldnt and what they should be showing - go to the dot anime website, register, and then leave a message for the the president about support for other operating systems, not tying things to just windows, not having stupid DRM stuff included, and what shows you want to see, like FREEDOM - they wont know if you don't tell them. And they DO listen over there - don't think they are doing all these things in a vacuum. |

| This actually seems pretty cool. I'm going to give it (Haruka) a shot on the website and if I like it I might invest in the series. I'm sure they are very different, but Haruka and Saiunkoku look similar and I need something to fill that void until Saiunkoku comes back, if ever. |

| I'd be surprised if they could afford the bandwidth. |

| It's good to see them trying something new even though it is only limited to USA and Canada. I'm going to check out Haruka anyway when it comes out on DVD. |

| These are never going to see a UK release, we cannot order from the dot anime site (thus missing out on any exclusives) and cannot view the streaming episodes either. I understand that they're only licensed to distribute in certain regions, but it is still annoying. |

| So, aside from being US only - are they dub only, too? Because if there's no sub option I wouldn't use it even if it was available in my country. |
