It's kind of a bugaboo of mine, the accusation that all anime fandom is ripping people off and doesn't care. We got thrown out of conventions for agitating against video pirates, we walked away from actual cash money we could have made selling dealers tables to bootleggers or selling tapes ourselves. There was a standard of ethics that was accepted in anime fandom - we argued about bootlegs, about charging to make copies, about SM CDs, about bootleg wall scrolls, about gray market HK DVDs, you name it we argued about it, but at the end of the day the ethical questions were always there and no matter what side of whatever argument you were on, at least we were aware there WAS an argument.
