I wish they'd put the effort in releasing actual sets, I'd love to own some of my favourites on DVD. But not only are subbed sets extremely rare, they are only released in the US, and are normally dodgy HK subs.

What I think a lot of these greedy suits don't realise is that most people who pirate or use fansubs or whatever else aren't evil, they are perfectly happy to pay, but if you refuse to take our money then we're going to have to find less pure channels to get our entertainment.

And I'm sure someone is going to argue that 'if it isn't available to you, wait until it is' and fair point, but have you seen how much of a DVD graveyard the UK is compared to the US? I only have one life, I can't waste it waiting for something that may never come.

And although there are ways around this, they are unnecessarily costly. I'm willing to pay, but not through the nose, simply because shit isn't made available in my country. I don't live in the third world, but it seems DVD distributors seem to think we are.
