Okl, prove your saying Rukiia, if you are so sure, please point me to the legal English streams/simulcast of: -Ginga he kick off -Toriko -Gon -Lets try a new one of this season: Kamisama hajimemashita, it already aired no simulcast yet Thats enough, I am looking forward to you or anyone else that says the same pointing me to these legals streams or whatever other legal means to watch them right now -outside japan evidently-, lookign forward to them so if you would please. thank you.
Thanks, this is a very good input from someone actually in Japan to get things into objective perspective. Last time I was in Japan I could not find some old series from the 70/80s -yet they were easily available online-, granted I only looked in Akiba but since I was not gonna waste time hunting them down all over the city I gave up So not even being in Japan its a guarantee that you will be able to get your hands on any series by legal means.

Tanken Driland, Doraemon, Shin-chan, Detective Conan, Chibi Devi!, Pocket Monsters, Yu-Gi-Oh, Battle Spirits, Jewelpet, Pretty Rhythm, Pretty Cure, Sword Eyes (doubt Aikatsu will be either when it premiers next week).. might as well throw in Kamen Rider and Super Sentai too while we're at it. There's a lot of series that people miss out on if they rely only on streams. Not to mention stuff like Madoka were never streamed until way after it ended and companies realized how huge it was and tried to backpedal for the rights.

....You are not really reading what I am saying, you know? I never even said that everything is available on legal streams. But if you insist: Toriko = Brought to you by Funimation. You're welcome. As for Ginga e Kickoff!!, they picked up a few new sports Anime on Crunchyroll last Spring and since sports is generally not that popular of a genre they probably only picked out what looked good. Gon - You are probably the only person who brought this Anime up. What does that tell you? Kamisama Hajimemashita - Now hold on a minute. Crunchyroll is just starting to pick up Fall titles so that one might be next for all we know. Sometimes they are late with picking stuff. Have some patience. I don't think you were even trying there. Last edited by Rukiia on Tue Oct 02, 2012 6:11 am; edited 1 time in total |

There is away around that and I'll post a link here, you just need to get Japenese Itunes cards >_> http://nihongoperapera.com/store/itunes-japan-registration-guide-no-cc.html
Your still on region one for dvd's and region a for blu-ray so importing boxsets from america or japan shouldn't be a issue for you. Until they tear barriers down on region blocking in other countries, this criminal activity will continue because it provides a better service. |

In my experence, there really isn't any reasoning on the insufficiency of media economic models that are compelling enough to validate the violation of the right of authors/copyright-holders to determine who can enjoy their properties and under what circumstances. Or put another way, I've never seen a convincing argument as to why the shortcomings of the media industry model (lost profits, untapped markets, technological stagnation, etc.) make any claim to enjoying a copyright-holder's works without their permission valid.

Not true. You can buy yourself a Japanese Itunes card. There are several websites that will sell you a Japanese Itunes card that you can purchase using foriegn currency. The one that I purchased my card from not only allowed me to do it, but gave me instructions, in English, regarding opening up a Japanese Itunes account. It was super easy to buy a song on JI, and then it took me a couple minutes to get that purchase to sync with my purchased music on the US Itunes. The purchase only took a couple of minutes; they send you a scan of the back of the card and away you go. And regarding purchasing Japanese goods from Japan - You can also do that with the aid of deputy services. These sites allow you to buy items from Yahoo Japan and many other websites for a service fee. And Mohawk, regarding your comment with Japan not accepting foriegn cards, that's true when you're physically in the country. I've had no issue with purchasing from companies while there with my Visa card. However, if you try to open an account on Yahoo Japan now, they will not accept it unless you have a Japanese credit card. Either way, it doesn't matter - Most Japanese sellers will not ship outside of Japan anyways. Most people don't want deal with language issues. |

As long as it doesn't affect fansubbers I don't realy care. For people like me who are excluded the media highway they are vital.

I think you misunderstood my point. I see copyright as more of a property rights issue, as opposed to one of economic models (which is why I stated that I've never seen an economic argument that overrides the property rights of a content-owner). And I've had this discussion with you before regarding the use of the word "monopoly" when talking about copyrights, which I'm generally against unless you're not trying to carry irrelevant baggage into the discussion (IIRC the media industry is traditionally considered an oligopoly, not monopoly, though I think you could argue monopolistic competition [which isn't the same thing as a monopoly]). |
