Hahahaha... ah, ah that's rich. Like that stands a snowballs chance. I like how they're pitching them as 'legal' subs. No, I think I'll stick with my lovingly crafted fan made, fan approved gray market subs.

Yeah, there's athread about this over here -> anime-manga.group.stumbleupon.com/forum/23449/ [anime-manga.group.stumbleupon.com/forum/23449/]

but since my last posting on there, I've come to realize that we're already at that point pretty much. Just look at animeforest.com [animeforest.com] and rentanime.com [rentanime.com] Sure, they're not fansubs but I think as a whole, the online community is slowly becomming where people are willing to shell out a few bucks for their entertainment. From music to movies and now, video games and anime.

Indeed, fan-subs for me also.

I'm all for official fansubs. No way I'd pay per ep though. They need to make the money in a different way. Either subscription service or from ad revenue by adding commercials.
