“but I won’t buy a TV and subscription for one show”

I find the biggest problem is that broadcasters and cable providers can’t let go of the idea of channels, time slots, and region locking.

So instead of forcing me to buy 50 channels on basic cable followed by 3 tiers of upgrade channels to get the one that airs the one show I want to watch, give me the ability to subscribe to a particular show (like a YouTube Channel but through micro payments), let me watch it on demand and in whatever quality I choose when it best fits MY schedule and don’t region lock it to the USA only. You know what? I might even be willing to pay slightly more for a totally commercial free version.

There’s a reason HULU, Netflix, and the like are growing in business while the cable co’s are losing it.

  “You’d think they’d be more concerned about increasing the awful quality of their programming than the resolution.” Exactly this. Cartoons in that resolution is so unnecessary.

  And here I am, using a 15″ CRT monitor. ;D

  Omg. Imagine compression not being invented yet. Only a couple of episodes would fit on a HDD. Anyway, we don’t really need higher resolution for anime and JAV. I’d rather see how well 3D anime would do instead. (Is there one yet?)

  That’s is what I am thinking. Too little far-stretch to call coincident, release a trailer a day before a big day for competitor. Great way to reduce Nexboxt hype and fangasm tomorrow.

  JRPG.. I care about these games, and there aren’t many of them on PC.. So I get console(PS3) instead

  Actually, its a brilliant move. Tease of PS4 image to gamer, so tomorrow, people will talk about PS4 and Nextbox, instead of just be excited about Nextbox all day long. Also, just teasing without showing the full image of the actual console, so in E3 people will be still thrill, instead of leaving the gamer in “hey, I already know that” sentiment.

  Those are all “shounen” anime that were ruined somehow, simply by fangirls with their fanart? Well, I don’t even like to categorize anime by audience or age… I was enjoying Seinin (Gits) and Shoujo (Sailor Moon) anime without even knowing while I was a Shonen, lol.
