Well he certainly cleared up that static on the ANN cast last week, when he specified that if the numbers don't return to an equitable level, companies like Bang-Zoom will cease to focus on anime productions. This makes a great deal more sense, and would have probably not made as much of an uproar had he worded it in this manner. What was fundamentally being lost in the post was the role of localized distributors, and the separate entities involved in making it internationally sales worthy.
