End Of Scanlation?

A coalition of manga publisher already made its movement. They succesfully forced OneManga.com offline.

One Manga posted an announcement

It pains me to announce that this is the last week of manga reading on One Manga (!!). Manga publishers have recently changed their stance on manga scanlations and made it clear that they no longer approve of it.

We have decided to abide by their wishes, and remove all manga content (regardless of licensing status) from the site.

I think this will have impact on the publisher too. Honestly, I also read manga scanlation regularly because i must wait about 2 years or so until the manga avalaible in my area. In worst case, the manga i read will never come to my area. So sad. -.-

“39’s Giving Day” Concert – Expensive

On March 9th 2010a Vocaloid concert event known as 「Miku no Nichi Kanshasai 39's Giving Day」 was held at the Zepp Tokyo music hall. Well of course i download the nico-nico broadcast of it. It is amazing concert, really.
The 「39’s Giving Day」 concert will be released on Blue-ray, DVD and CD on September 2010. The price is.... err like usual Japanese Blue-ray, so high. *sigh*.
For the Blue-ray version you should prepare about 7,350 JPY, while a DVD version just cost a little cheaper. But if you insisted, you can buy a CD version for 3,150 JPY, sigh... its only CD version though.
