Re: Music industry doing evil things-- where's the surprise?
said by neowulf  :Interesting note on anime topic. Sometimes subbed anime cost more then the same titled dubbed anime, even though all they do is add subs and no extra voice actor cost. So tell me how that makes any sense? That was true in the days of VHS. Anime purists were willing to pay more for the subs. However, everything is released on DVD these days, and it is easy to include both subtitled, and English overdubbed tracks on a single DVD.
When imports are cheaper then domestic versions, even adding in the extra shipping you pay, you know you are just paying some greedy production middleman that really shouldn't exist at all. With more and more imports coming in with many different subs languages, it almost makes no sense, unless you really need dubbed.
Where have you seen imports selling cheaper than domestic; except for the Taiwanese bootlegs? I consider those bootlegs to be the equivalent of trading in MPAA properties with P2P; I won't touch them.
