It’s what we had long predicted: ADV Films shuts down. And why shouldn’t it? As Justin Sevakis stated, the street price of Anime is zero. Zilch. Why would someone pay for an outdated DVD, when a free 720p high definition fansub is available online? Me and Alex have both stated that we’d happily shell out a wad of cash to grab our favorite Anime’s on Blu-Ray, in a flash. 1080p Project A-Ko? Yes please! 720p torrent or a region coded DVD that technically should be unplayable in my region? Not a difficult decision.

Crunchyroll may be on the right track, but as it stands right now…

Region locked file that I can’t play or torrent?

Even easier decision.

  1. Wow… There goes almost ALL the anime industry in North America. I’m with you, I’d buy anime on bluray in a heart beat(for the right price…)!

    And on an unrelated note: Man it sucks not having disqus on this blog as well haha.

  2. I figured out away to get disqus to work with blogsome. Only problem is you can’t get the comment count to show on the main page. But other then that it works perfectly with no big issues from what it seems.

    If you want me to walk you through it, shoot me an email or something. Here’s the test blogsome I made just to figure out how to get disqus working: http://testtesttestest.blogsome.com/2009/09/03/hello-world/

    so you can see what you’d be working with.
