Both the Nippon and Burger versions were on the DVDs with subtitles for both

Those DVD versions were completely uncut, though. I believe Cuntimation even did a completely new dub for the DVDs. I can't say for sure because I never watched them but I think the changes amounted to different intros and endings, the actual video is exactly the same and therefore easy to offer both dialogue tracks

What I'm saying is you couldn't do that with anything 4Kids localised, or even Dragon Ball Z as it originally aired on TV back in 2000 or whenever

[Le Redditeur]

I was taking about streaming and disk based distribution, not syndication. Of course the 4kids heavily edited dubs couldn't coexist with an uncut subbed version, but that shouldn't matter, the target audiences are different anyway. And if most of the audience ends up preferring the original dub with subtitles, well, take the hint.

[Kugelfisch]

They can still do all that crap and keep the option for original audio + subtitles. I don't see how that would lose them money; if anything, you'd get an even bigger audience.

Doesn't matter at all. Those companies would rather lose money even.
An example:
A big chain of supermarkets bought another chain. The chain they bought used DeWaS 3, a digital wares tracking, ordering, inventory, register communication and even financial bookkeeping system.

It was the industry standard, could communicate with basically any OS (Servers running MS Server, registers running Linux and digital scales running DOS, yes, fucking MS DOS all concurrently? No problem!) and all it costs was a one-time purchase with free upgrades until the next full version.

That's as cost effective as it gets.
But the buyer had their own, shitty, incapable, utter fucking mess of a shit system.
So DeWaS 3 was replaced and they had their IT department run red hot for months, just cramming all the data from the article database into it. By hand. Including multiple duplicates for fucking everything.
Wrigley's Spearmint is one article, yeah? Now you had it in the system a cool six times. Once from the new chain, once from the old chain and then once more for every distribution warehouse in the whole of Germany the old chain had, most of them having been closed.

So while in DeWaS 3, you'd find the item once. Just the one you have listed, just from the warehouse you get your shit from, in the new system you had a massive amount of duds, including an extra one for promotional packaging like 10+1 packs of Snickers or +20% volume bottles of detergent. Years old shit that would cause searching for a single item to take actual ten minutes because in that system it would load all articles first before you could search. Active, inactive, listed or not, one extra for every distributor that doesn't even exist anymore and all those special promotion packagings and limited editions.

In the over ten years we had that store, the database was never cleaned up. Despite IT working on it for the entire time, they never got done.
No wonder, considering we are talking about actual millions of items.

That it was costly didn't matter. Their in-house solution was their sunk cost fallacy. They would rather go bankrupt than admit their system was a pile of wank.


So, on topic. It doesn't matter that the dub is garbage. They paid for it, you will get it and you damn well get no fucking option besides it because whatever that other company made is shit garbage by default because fuck you.

Dipshit is trying to save what is left of that public image.

Basically what he is saying is, if he is wrong, so are you for calling him out on it because he wants to manipulate the general audience that is mad at him.

[McGinnis]

I was taking about streaming and disk based distribution, not syndication.

Nobody said anything about syndication. I was talking about discs too.

I wasn't talking about streaming because we're talking about the business as it was then, when localisations were remotely relevant

And if most of the audience ends up preferring the original dub with subtitles, well, take the hint.

They did take the hint, they're out of business. In part because they refused to understand the market

"I know it's shit but I like shit. You can't call it shit because that's harassment!"
Nice logic from that ultra cuck. He's standing with his back against the wall. Time to bring up that dead father of his again.

Don't worry he already had that covered

[Kugelfisch]

Yeah but once more for good measure. Gotta get that sympathy value out of his corpse while it's still arguably recent.

It's only a matter of time, dude is doing full on damage control right now.

[Kugelfisch]

All brought onto him by himself because he can't stop using Twitter and blurt out his dumb opinions.
Of course we all knew he wouldn't quit.
