To me its a big joke.Originally posted by RonDaGuy:ur that idiot. are you one working in that company?
please stop calling people idiots. mod please do something about him and this thread.
i have already edited my previous msg before you post this msg.
please kindly take back your words and edit your message too.
Most of you guys dont bother to read and think.
Instead you guys just follow what others say.
In this sense you ARE a idi0t.

we read and believe what we wanted to.
this is a forum and we can say what we want to and discuss in this thread
until it is locked.
If we don't know the facts you can post the facts here and
correct us instead of calling names and trolling around
like we have to listen to you. stop your barbaric acts.
if you don't like it then keep your comments to yourself and stop
calling people an idiot. You can't take my words into your heart?
then start learning how others will feel. if not just stfu and gtfo.
problem with you is that you just think you are right yet you don't want
to post the facts and why...
It doesn't give you the excuse to be insensible to other people's posts.
neither do we give a damn now.
This is chat forum, anyone can just come in and post [b]WITHOUT having to know what is going on! you don't like it then just seriously stfu.

argh! stupid FI. injustice. -
Im not clear about this. ODEX is suing people who download THEIR subbed animes or ANY Anime?
Who made them the authority on anime distribution in Singapore? -
singaporeans do not practice caring and sharing...
-
Hmm, I find the Odex-AVPAS relationship more tricky and fishy.
Other than that its concern for the future anime and the director who is like a kid, how he talks and acts... -
wah liew, still thinking about buying some anime to watch, but after this, I will go download and upload to my US server instead... plain rebellious!
-

Odex sucks after reading this articles:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Odex
Odex was trying to earn money by riding on the success of the anime fanbase in Singapore.
Odex website has not been updated for many years, generally causing people to believe that Odex does not care for its fans. His website is under construction.
It is his own fault sale drop, not because of illegal downloading. Should blame himself.
It make more people hate him. Sale will drop further. -
legally, what's wrong with downloading?
we're not the ones who sit in japan with a recorder and record from japan tv. we're not the ones who subtitled it.
we're not the ones who distributed it.
we're not the ones who host it online for pple to download.
in other words, its in public domain wad. its there, we see it, we download it - how is this illegal?
watching on youtube also not illegal wad. its up to japan's tv networks and youtube to take it down wad. not our fault if its there for us to see.
i nv download but if he send me letter to pay the $3000 to $5000 i'd rather fight with him in court.
why all the pple so .... to settle out of court and pay him the money?
can someone tell me why is this illegal? -
oh and FI I STILL HATE U!
Why is this topic not locked?! TELL ME WHY IS THERE FAVOURITISM? WHY SO BIASED and UNFAIR? -
*nods* i agree. why are they suddenly the anime download police. shldn't it be hand over to police to investigate? nobody steal from them wad. newspaper nv report how they get the court order leh. stupid odex. and [biased] FI.Originally posted by Shotgun:Im not clear about this.

I doubt very much Odex boss won't earn a cent....... Let's see .....Originally posted by Xephone_xenon:They have to
1) BayTSP (which, if you check around, is very well known for charging pretty high rates. Factor in the USD->SGD conversion)
2) Law firm. I still won't name it, but they deal with Japan. So they would charge Japanese rates too. There's a reason why japanese companies pay well - they spend very well too.
3) Court orders.
4) ISP charges. The ISPs are profiteering from this. They are charging pretty high amounts to release the data, since this is their chance to earn.
5) Odex having to hire extra manpower to go through the documentation, match, and then send them out.
So at the end of the day they wont earn.
Number of Alleged Stubhub subscribers who were reported to be going to be sued for payment of $5000 each numbers 1000.
$5000 x 1000 = $5,000,000
$5,000,000 BIG ONES!! That's a hell lotta cash. He gonna milk these poor souls for their cash!!
After paying up items #1-#5, he may still rake in at least a MILLION BIG ONES!! And this is only from Strarhub subscribers!! What about from Singtel and PacNet?? heheheh...
CASH COW INDEED!!!!!!!! -

What if all those ppl dun pay and decided to drag it out to court and fight it out?Originally posted by FireAndHell:I doubt very much Odex boss won't earn a cent....... Let's see .....

If what it stated is indeed true, why dun we fan of anime group together and pool a certain amount of $$$ (by donation) to some of those poor soul being issue the letter for them to fight out the case in court. If more then one of us are willing to fight it out in court, I believe the sheer amount of court case bills that odex have to fight will eventually bankrupt them. After all, without their 3k or 5k profit from each of their letter issue, they now have to pay for both the law suit and their so call anime crack down fees.
If starhub are charging them for revealing 1000 IP detail. I am sure gathering evidences through searching 1000 household isnt really going to be easy nor cheap. The amount of fees and effort for count search warrant, etc will going to cost them a bomb.
But if they are going to juz sue a few of them, we will know at least where the law stand. After all the strength of many out weight the power of one.
Is there any lawyer here to clarify in this issue? -
just like the Horizon Tower case. the idea that the develper is going to sue them $1b will frighten many away. given that Odex may not lose the case, the law fees will be borne by the individualOriginally posted by EarlNeo:What if all those ppl dun pay and decided to drag it out to court and fight it out?
