I use Overnet file-sharing, a d the raw episodes are usually available within a week of their broadcast dates.

Thanks, unfortunately i can't use Overnet >_< Not until i get Mac OSX installed anyway (need new HD first as this one half died on my already)... and my brother's PC has a firewall T_T argh i hate our 4gig download limit. I suppose there is no-one in Australia who has the raws that i can pay for CDs and postage to burn?

I run through two firewalls. One is in my router, and one is Bullguard. Having a firewall should only keep you from downloading from others who also use firewalls. See What 'Firewalled' means on the eDonkey help pages.

MMM i know i CAN get around the firewall.... it just means i need to fiddle ^^; and my brother doesn't want me to fiddle at all with it. Besides our 4GB limit means that if i SAY what i want to download and its big the answer is no ^^;;;;;

I've just signed up for Dart Internet. $65/month with a 10GB limit. And if you go over it the speed drops from 512k to 128k. Considering I'm on 56k at the moment, that doesn't sound too bad!
Gotta wait for the installation though.

I share cable with my mom, and never thought about any limit. I guess I had better check it out.

well this is nice.....finding out on there website that they canned subbing atom first here rather than first hearing it in there irc channel........ :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry:

I hope some other fansubbing group starts up where TV-Nihon left off or sony decides to release the subbed version.

[jeffbert]

I could be resultant of pressure from those who own the rights to the dubbed version. However, this would not explain why the raw episodes remain available, if they do indeed remain available on these sources.

[SoKn_Jedi]

Well if I could do fan subbing of the series I would. I have the computer for it (P4 3 Ghz with hyperthreading ) just not the knowlage of the language.

[Haruka-chan]

More likely they had more... interesting projects ¬_¬ like they release Sailor Moon Live Action just after it shows in Japan >_< (not knocking that show btw i have first 9 eps plus making of an di love it i just can't d/l it easily..... but i still love Atom more)

I'm fansub the series myself if 1) i had a G5 XD 2) my Japanese wasn't so rusty >_<

So desu ne?
