Sorry, is that Get Ride, AM Driver or something else?

Does anyone know anything about this company? This quote is from their website.

Quote:
Illumitoon is focused on acquiring kid friendly properties that are “placeable” in the North American market. That is, properties that, in addition to having an inherent appeal to a general kid audience, are friendly towards the North American entertainment standards and poised for greatest broadcast placement. With an increasing number of alternatives for the viewing public, it is imperative that entertainment content be as adaptable as possible. Illumitoon seeks to maximize its presence in existing as well as emerging media


and even more alarming this is found in the president's profile

Quote:
As Vice President of Production, Mr. Watson determined the direction of the series, setting the “look and feel” of the shows through reversioning and editing the programs so as to appeal to a mass audience


The people in charge sound like they are the old Funimation crew who left when Funimation began changing it's values and standards. I remember all the bad press Funimation had 5 years ago when these people were in charge. I'm really a bit scared of Illumination.
