I'm not turning my back on makers of anime, just because. I have a reason. I want my anime to be affordable. I don't believe that just because he used to fansub anime makes his gouging prices any more reasonable or right. I think the fact that he sells anime at exorbenant prices, and often times low quality is grounds for going elsewhere. I find your arguments weak. You say stuff like: Supoprt them because they were there from the beginning, and they brought anime to America. Yet...Manga Entertainment was the main reason Anime was in America, yet all I can hear is people badmouth them. I find this to be a hypocritical topic. I refuse to pay some corporation $120 for a 4 DVD series that cost them less than $5 to make. When they price it like that, I have no guilt that I'm not fattening their paychecks.
