Japan Fights Piracy Abroad - Last Exile - 08-23-2004 New piracy news: With foreign export generating larger and more significant portion of the Japanese entertainment industry's income, especially in manga and anime, Japanese companies are working on methods to minimize their significant losses to piracy. Due to its nature, manga sales have not been suffering significant losses to piracy, however there is a large number of pirated CDs and DVDs being sold overseas, large enough for the Japanese industry to begin researching and implementing drastic counter-measures. The Japanese visual contents industry will begin labeling products with stickers designating them as legitimate exports, thereby making it easy to identify pirated goods. In July it was reported that 38 Japanese entertainment companies were set to introduce a "Made in Japan" trademark for similar purposes. According to a current report on Yahoo Japan, companies will start adding the stickers to exported goods as early as this September. In order to provide additional ammunition for their fight against international piracy they will also begin applying for trademarks in various countries in North America, Europe and Asia. The reports do not mention what measures will be taken to keep piracy operations from copying producing fake copies of the identifying stickers. Additionally, it was recently mentioned at the Otakon "State of the Industry" panel that Japanese companies may start direct legal processes against North American fansubbers (more details on this will be presented in our final Otakon coverage later this week). ----- s :eek: unds like they are making more steps to block our anime. all the HK companies better get there hands on those made in japan stickers? -LE Japan Fights Piracy Abroad - Vicious - 08-23-2004 This is old news. You're only about a month late on it.

Gotta love the irony (I think that's the proper term for this situation). Japan Fights Piracy Abroad - dailyplanet - 08-24-2004 Quote:Fucking genius. They just don't know it yet...

HK companies steal from other companies. They don't have liscenses to distribute the anime they put out. LE is gonna be screwed over if he wants to start a company AND still support HKs... Or, maybe he actually wants to start his own bootlegging company...now that would be interesting...

Just because you saw it at another forum doesn't mean it's new. This was written up pretty much immediately after Otakon. We had this discussion at AN about a month ago, right after I got back from Otakon.

I wasn't trying to 'hate', I was just saying the story is old. I read about the Japanese sticker and the whole thing about how it's not profitable to bootleg manga awhile back. It's nothing new. But if it's new to you, then good for you. Japan Fights Piracy Abroad - Last Exile - 08-26-2004 yeah it was and im just trying to share with all of you that dont like to forum hop. -LE |
