Singapore cracks down on anime piracy

according to the chinese papers today. 17 singaporeans have been issued with warning letters from the Singapore Anti-Video Piracy Association (AVPA) regarding illegal downloading of animes.

singapore anime fanbase will be doomed. where else can we get to watch anime 1 day after Japan?
on starhub cable and it crappy china accented dub, which takes months, even years to get to shown on TV?
it will also affect the local toys/collectibles/figurines/modelling industry. -

A bunch of animes titles never made it into the market... Why would they want to protect they're not going to sell anyway...

Next time they'll just compact everything into rmvb format and share it on upload sites like megaupload. Better still, file transfer on msn live messenger.

I am very upset by this news...

You know, its not people don't want to buy, its they sell it so expensive that people can't afford to buy, in the end they blame us for downloading it from then net.
What's more, the quality of the anime they sell sux... whether is it video quality, dub or sub. -
You? Upset? How about mr roll eyes? I hope the frequency of eye rolling doesn't increase after this piece of news.Originally posted by MohamedF:I am very upset by this news...
