So Japan is cracking down on bootlegs, but not ending the fan-comic market?
Maybe a deciphered version in the Breaking News thread on what all is being said here would be helpful. All I am seeing is this show is anti-download, while Game of Thrones loves being the most pirate series.
Simple put, will it affect things like spoof comics/shows like Hayate, Gintama, etc?
no telling if it is an experiment to counter piracy, or just a decision by CR at this time. We have come a LONG way that shows are shown in other countries and have a chance to thrive after actually showing in relative time rather than having to wait 3 or more years for something to be translated.
Releases for feature films like marvel movies and disney movies and such were always kind of short between native language and others, and not true for anime. wonder if they finally understand now how the wait was hurting and CAUSING in part the piracy because people wanted to see things that never had a chance to get translated, and with quicker worldwide viewing it means les piracy.
Though as has been shown in studies, piracy wont end, because those wh pirate wouldn’t buy the things anyway. iTunes definitely seems to have proven that point without all the DRM nonsense.
at $1 per son and 8 billion people on the planet, what more could you want than everyone on the planet buying your song and how much profit does 8 billion give after cost to make it? if anime could only reach that conclusin and now that it has a timely fashion to get it out, it needs a cost that will get everyone to buy it and rake int he greater profits with less markup per item.
How many people wouldn’t pay $1 per episode of any anime series to get to download in their preferred DRM-free format and be able to watch on any device they want to, and how much more money would that make the creators of the shows if more people are BUYING more things, without the cost to produce a physical product?
what is the average delay on most CR streams? a week or so? for free users at least a week later, but what was the delay for stream to the “premium” users, only 2 days from original air-date to streaming date?
