This includes all anime features, official or fan-generated scripts for these features and illustrations featuring the likenesses of the characters appearing in these features (as in GIF files). Copyrights are intended to make sure that the author of the work receives appropriate compensation for his/her job. Some people consider the copying of anime a morally corrupt practice, as the author of the work is not being paid. There have been several counter-arguments to this by anime fans, such as: - It is unlikely that the Japanese companies will sue the fan, as this practice creates a demand for other anime-related products, which increases their sales. - The fan is against profiting from this activity, and in some cases even boycotts and denounces any people who are doing it for profit. - These features are far too expensive/hard-to-find for the fan to acquire them by other means. Regardless of any moral or economical justifications, the fact is that copying of anime features is illegal under US law. If the fan resorts to this method to obtain anime material, he/she should be aware of this. o TRANSLATED ANIME The following companies have translated anime videos for sale. These are OFFICIAL versions, done with the authorization of the owners. - AD Vision 2709 Chimney Rock Houston TX 77056 (713) 965-0886 - AnimEigo PO Box 989 Wilmington, NC 28402 (919) 799-1501 e-mail: Janice Hindle at 72447.37@compuserve.com - Pioneer LDCA, Inc. 2265 East 220th Street Long Beach, CA 90810 (213) PIONEER (746-6337) - Streamline Pictures P.O.

He's now logged at happosai.com. - geeker now uses cd(1) and ls(1) just like in Unix to find whatever he's after. If geeker want to get the Ranma-chan GIF, he must do the following: - He uses cd(1) to go to /anime/hentai. Once there, he uses ls(1) to make sure that r-chan1.gif is actually there. - GIF files are binary, so geeker sets the file transfer type to binary by typing "binary". - geeker types "get <filename>", where <filename> is the name of the file he wants to copy. In our case, he would type "get r-chan1.gif" to get the file. Note that no wildcards are allowed. - Several other ftp commands to know: "?" - lists the commands available "quit" - exits the program "ascii" - sets file transfer mode to ascii "mget" - allows multiple-file gets, and wildcards If you need help, or want to learn advanced techniques, DON'T post to rec.arts.anime for help. Instead, ask your local system administrator / CCON / Unix witch doctor for help. That's what they're paid for.
