Elia, you talked earlier about the whole ninja gaiden costs $$ thing. Sure it is different that choosing fan-subs. Their can't be any possible thing thats exactly in the same situation that fan-subs are in. Fan-subs are free, and thats the eternal difference between all of them.

you cant use this principal to compare to fan-subs. A/A, Bakasan, Shinotaku and whoever else subs all make the same .avi format (unless there's something I'm not aware of), while xbox and ps2 are like comparing an .mpeg to .mov formats. They are both different. They both use different programs.

Basically, because of the fact that all the fan-subs are free, you cant compare it to the purchase of a video game.
