Yikes

So, TV-Nihon, how is this going to affect us/everything/anything?

That'd be awesome. DVD releases for everything.

Honestly, that would be a big problem, but I'm not exactly sure what we would be able to do if that did happen.

I knew that would happened. However, that would never work. You know why?

The Internet is so huge, it's near impossible to target the culprits. Plus, there's going to be loads of complaints with many people ranting that the ISPs are attacking their privacy.

this was in the news in the uk with the goverment telling the ISP to 'police' the internet with reguards to file sharing

The ISP 's just told them you can't police the internet, they don't the time or resources to do it

They'll probably target a couple of big file sharers, make a big deal about it to scare the other users and hope that people will just be scared into not using them. They don't need to get all of them to mess with the few good ones out there

OwO, so you get your raws from a Japanese file sharing program? This will hurt chances of my love for Kiva....

Hmm, I'm reading these comments below, and it seems people are more concerned about the Japanese AVs compared to all the other shows...
