Hey all,
I had sent a e-mail to the contact address of import-anime, but I'll ask here cause maybe I'll get a quicker response. (no offense to the person answering the e-mails.)
I recently finished watching an Anime series I really enjoyed. I watched 10 episodes on Anime on Demand, and the last 3 I missed, so I bought the Region 1 copy of those episdoes. Well, now to complete the set, I'm buying the other 3 disks for the incredible price of 20 bucks a disk. :mad:
However it got me thinking, and this may be a stupid question but I gotta know. When you purchase a HK DvD from either here or the other websites that sell the same, do any royalties go to the creators and producers of the series you're watching?
I assume laws and such are different in other parts of the world, so I could have been enjoying all this good anime w/o any of the prophets of my purchases going to the makers. My concern is to endorce the makers of good anime to keep doing so. I know there's alot of "stealing" going on as far as downloading and such, but I for one would like to be a good egg, and give them some support.
Any information would be much appritiated.
