| | Fansub BitTorrent site gets cease-and-desist |
 | | From a spectator's point of view I wish Animesuki had made a stand and we could have seen which way the court would go, or whether MFI would have been willing to even risk it in court in the first place; but of course I can't blame Animesuki for doing as they did. |
 | | Secondly, sites like Animesuki claim to to take down a torrent if it is licensed in the US, but let's not kid ourselves, America is usually launched after other territories like Asia (this is purely for physical reasons because asian dubs can be produced extremely quickly and censorship laws aren't very strict). |
 | | That means, while Animesuki has its torrents up, we, the anime companies, are losing a great deal of money as it takes a good one to two years before a US launch happens. |
