Digital Distribution

We focus on the distribution of anime over the Internet. Has fan subbing opened the door for sites like Crunchyroll to even exist? Should bloggers start a campaign to rid the word of fan sub groups? How are sites like Crunchyroll able to succeed in an industry where their product is available for free. As well as questions about further the awareness of anime through site like ANN and Crunchyroll. Joining us on this week’s discussion is Tim Maughan from timmaughanbooks.com, Zac Bertschy from the ANNCast and Anime News Network and Chase Wang from Crunchyroll.
