Dubs, crappy packaging, and inferior R1s: What ADV et al will not tell you about why their products are epic fail

(I had an awesome post typed out and then WordPress ated it ;-;)

Don’t tell me I don’t know anything about the bloody debate about fansubs hurting the industry. I’ve read the arguments, waded through the flaming, read about Zac Berwhatshisname putting down animé blogs that do episode summaries, and waded through literally the TONS of FUD from BOTH SIDES about the whole bloody issue. Yes, even Arthur Smith and Justin Sevakis. I’ve heard enough utter nonsense and foolish chickenscratchings from both sides claiming this and that. You guys sicken me, arguing over absolutely nothing when the truth is just a Google search away.

Seriously, guys, is it too much to ask anyone to Google “Why are prices in Japan so DAMN high“? Oh wait. It IS too much to ask anyone on the Internets to Google for the truth.
