That's not the issue here. Although it's one of my favourite series, it has a low chance of being licensed in R1. What MFI's issue is (apparently), is that it's freely accessable by the Japanese audience.
And you think R1 anime DVD prices are bad? R2 (Japanese) anime DVDs normally have 2 episodes per disc.
I dumped this from a PDF file Lunar Anime received. Most of those in the fansubbing community know that we respect US licenses, so we're also respecting MFI's request. Please note that Lunar is only doing KgNE from that list.

Re: Copyright Infringement on Web Site
Dear Madame/Sir,
I am a legal counsel of Media Factory, Inc. and writing this letter in that capacity.
Media Factory, Inc. ("MFI") is one of Japanese major animation film producers and owns or jointly owns with other companies copyrights and trademarks regarding various Japanese anime films including the following works ("Works"):
Gankutsuou Rahxephon Genshiken Kimi ga nozomu Eien
Recently, MFI found that certain unauthorized copies of the Works are uploaded to the following web site(s) considered to be managed by you ("your web site") and/or that users are induced on or through your web site to certain web sites containing such unauthorized copies. Such unauthorized copies may be downloaded by users in many countries including Japan from such web sites without charge. We believe that a large number of unauthorized copies have already been flowed out through such web sites.
www.lunaranime.org
Needless to say, unauthorized copying and upload and distribution of such copies are serious copyright infringement. Absolutely no money goes to creators and anime producers of the Works from such illegal distribution.
I hereby request you to cease and terminate said upload and/or inducement immediately and erase all the copies of the Works under your possession. Please confirm the termination and erasure in writing to my contact address set forth as above within ten (10) business days of your receipt of this letter either by mail or facsimile.
In case we cannot confirm said termination and erasure within such period, we will need to consider commencing necessary legal action.
This letter is sent without prejudice to any of MFI's rights or remedies. Sincerely,
Bullshit Bingo is actually not dot-com inspired. It's from the book "How to Take an Exam...And Remake the World" (Actually, it's about politics/sociology) by Bertell Ollman. The blocks include such phrases as "Compassionate Conservative", "It's Only Human Nature" and "Equality of Opportunity".
The book also has testimonials from satisfied players.

On another note, I suggest everyone pick up a copy of this book.
If you don't want a potentionally unstable kernel, grsecurity 2.0.2 on 2.4.28 doesn't allow for these kinds of shenanigans.

This IS the best DVD player I have ever owned. It still has some problems that haven't been solved yet (firmware upgrades). It doesn't have MKV or OGM container support, it crops off the edges of DivX/XviD movies (!), and the subtitle font can't be changed (It's a tad small). Hopefully some firmware upgrade in the future will fix this.
I know that I can turn off sigs, but I'd also miss some good ones.
I'm not going to get rid of everyone's sigs for that. I've tried once, but found myself turning it back on because of OT discussions about them. Plus, when I moderate I get to see who I should mod down. You might think that's stupid, but guess what: It's my choice to have sigs on or off, and it's also my choice to mod spammers down.
It's a good thing you're one of my friend's foes (You should know who, he makes free*.com spammers his foes), so you already stand out.
IRT Hypercube, the basic story may have been simillar, but the plot wasn't nearly as good (Come on, no -logical- way of escaping?) and the character development was very weak in comparison. It may have been a decent movie, but a lot of us were still disappointed.
Why do people bother asking me why I have this in my sig? Nobody seems to be able to put 2 and 2 together and see why I spend my mod points this way. So now, if you advertise your freeipod link, you're spamming people directly and indirectly.
At this point, I don't really care about if it does work or not. I'm just really sick and tired of people filling up Slashdot with useless spam. I know that I can turn off sigs, but I'd also miss some good ones.
I'm also an IRCop, so I'm constantly being annoyed by having to deal with spammers. Those people also have "an ulterior motive". They're just using a different method of promoting it.
I run a system with over 1600 users on it. I can not expect everyone to use Good Code. Most of them download scripts from other places and don't bother upgrading for things like this. It's still a PHP vulnerability. The reason why I didn't know if I was vulnerable is because I'm running things like mod_security.
The average user is an idiot. It's the admins who clean up after them in the end.
Ensim? Dear God. I worked with that piece of shit for about 2 days before I gave up and converted it to a Gentoo system (remotely, was no easy task).
Want to upgrade? Try downloading php, compile it as an apache module, and instead of "make install", replace the files individually. Ensim does a lot of weird stuff.
And that's why they decided not to release any POCs. I know it's just a matter of time, though. Guess it's a good thing for them (forum owners, etc), but a bad thing for me because I don't know if my machine is vulnerable yet.
I read about this yesterday and couldn't find out if
mod_security and suPHP are vulnerable
to these attacks. With mod_security blocking buffer overflows, "bad" characters, etc. and mod_suphp forcing
PHP to run as the user, I don't think that it gives people who run these modules (that) much to worry about.
Slashdot Mirror
That's nothing. ROT-26 offers the best encryption as of yet!
Actually, I want to buy this just because it sounds so horrible. It's the same thing that happened with Naked Came the Stranger.

The site's still pretty responsive, but I still coralized all of the pages before it came out of TMF.
Excellent first movie with a not-so-good sequel. The case is awesome, though. I'm still looking forward to Cube Zero. w00t for Canadian movies!

Heh, it's ... nice to see SCO as the top searched-for company. I guess it pays to be in that position, but we're gonna have to wait and see if it changes anything.

More like "This year had 3000 births and 3020 deaths."
It's not to show emphasis. It makes the word optional, because I don't know for sure if these modules prevent such attacks.
