It's not a deal breaker, if I really want to see it, and they can't afford to give it a special release. |

There's a lot of great anime out there that gets good dubs. Enough that I can be picky about what I buy. If a company can choose not to release a dub then I can choose not to buy it. I'm sure you aren't suggesting that the only good anime is sub-only anime are you?

There no such thing as them not being able to afford extras. Not when box office bombs and B movies can find a way to afford them. If they're going to be cheap about it and I really want to see it then I'll rent it, but I'm not going to buy it.

| I can understand complaining about the BVUSA prices, but complaining about these prices is plain ridiculous. I'd pre-ordered the first volums of True Tears (1 episode at around £14 IIRC but wasn't sure that I was going to continue. Now the only question is whether to wait and see if Beez is going to release it locally. |

Not at the moment.

No, but I am suggesting that anime can be appreciated, in spite of whether or not it has an added dub.

Studios can afford it, when there's an audience for it. |

You know, the way the prices are here, I think Bandai Visual could find a small goldmine here... |

This is smashing news for folk like myself.
I just hope that this'll still be reasonably priced and availible when I decide to watch Sola. Exchange rates no longer favour me. |
