Vicious Wrote:Yes and no. I just hate it when people randomly blame the R1 companies for everything. There are costs associated with licensing an anime and then releasing it here. I've heard it's gotten to the point where it'd almost be cheaper to start making their own anime. The Japanese know there is a huge anime market here and are squeezing the Americans for everything they can get. It is a business and you can't expect Bandai or ADV to release a series just to lose money can you?

I'm actually really surprised with the prices that R1 companies charge for anime.. when you consider how much more they have to spend to license, translate, dub, package, and market in North America. When releasing North American shows and movies on DVD, they don't have to do anywhere near that amount of work, yet they charge the same thing... and that's okay... but since HK companies rip off all the hard work put into bringing anime to North American shores and then undercut their prices, the R1 companies are stupid for not selling their anime at a loss? Yeah... good argument.
