     That is correct, they do not hold the rights to any of their titles.
That is what SM Record's owner told me during one of our conversations a
while back.  So much for $15.00 discs. Oh well...

P.S.  They are making a rather impressive market share in Taiwan.  I personally
      only know of Tower Records who do not sell their discs.

Actually, her weapon looks like *two* crescent arches connected back

Subject: *Jo Hisaishi Interview?*
Date: 27 Jan 93 06:45:22 GMT
Organization: The Batchelor Pad

This is just a shot in the dark, but:
   *To thse people out there that influence magazines and the like, 
how about publishing an (English) interview of Jo Hisaishi?
   *To others: does anyone know of a translated Jo Hisaishi interview 
in English?

   Jo Hisaishi is (besides being an accomplished musician/composer in 
his own right), the man behind the music of all the Miyazaki movies 
(from Nausicaa to Laputa, to Totoro to Kiki to Porco Rosso)...

   Doesn't it seem obvious that he'd be a good candidate for an 
interview? :)  I mean, Miyazaki's movies are popular all over the 
world, and so is the music that goes along with them.  The 
soundtracks certainly sell mighty well here in the States.

   Please, give this idea some good thought. I for one would be vry 
interested in seeing a translated interview with Mr. Hisaishi.

  And if you know of one translated in existance, please *EMAIL* me 
with details (actually, please email me anyway, instead of replying 
public. I do get some r.a.a. posts, but not all of them here).
Thanks!

  I believe that WIRED is the new Cyber(Punk) magazine that comeso
comes out with it's premire issue today. Aside from all of the annoying
use of multipo
multiple font styles and sizes on each page (It's Soooo Alternative! - NOT!)
Who knows that magazine might actually contain something. I saw a bit on a TV
show about it a few weeks back and as they were interviewing someone
you could see a page of the magazine on the DTP in the background and
it said in LAGRE letters OTOKU, in both English and Japanese!!!
So I think they might touch on the concept in the 1st issue! I hope the
articles have some substance and arn't ALL flash.....

All legitimate UY tapes (the shells are usually blue) should have
liner notes.  If they don't, then either someone snitched them or
the duplicator missed inserting the liner notes into yours.

You can get an extra copy by calling or writing the USA office and
asking for a copy.  I do know they have had some machine problems
in recent days that caused them to lose some email, so that might
explain why you didn't get an answer.

Silent Mobius is truly excellent;  one of my top five favorites.  Part
of the reason it's excellent is that it carries two plots rather than
one, with the middle 2/3 being a flashback on how Katsumi Liquer came
to join the AMP.  You can tell the difference because Grosspoliner
(the sword) isn't in the middle portion, and because Katsumi's hair is
too short there.

I got a pretty decent script by ftp from venice.ohio-state.edu, the

Well, looking at the Computer monitors on the SDF-1 in the original
Macross, it appears that the original crew of the SDF-1 (before it
crashed on Italia island) fought Klingons.  There was a computer
display showing Klingons.

Given: The Macross/Zentraedi beat Klingons

Given:  Klingons are a match for the Enterprise.

I think it is safe to assume that the Macross could beat the
Enterprise.

Who said the animation isn't all that great?  Miyazaki really has an eye
for detail (as far as movements and motion goes).  It's just incredible,
like all his films.  It's my favorite Miyazaki film (please, no
Nausicaa vs. Laputa or Kiki vs. Totoro threads!).  The story as
presented by the movie is excellent by itself, but it is only a very
small portion (and quite modified) of Miyazaki's on-going manga
of the same name.

Yup!  That's Reba "Minmei" West!! Hmmm... given that her role on
Robotech was 8 or so years ao and that it was her FIRST role, I would
hope that she has gotten better over the years.

Sorry, but the VideoExpander can't handle your subtitling needs.  It doesn't allow live video to pass 
during graphic output.  To get that you have to go to a more expensive product.  I'm currently using 
Truevision NuVista+ on a MacIIfx.  That does a great job with my subtitling, but it really hurts the 
pocketbook.  If you would like more info email me.

Hmm, I've seen Ranma Vocal Collections 1-4 on Nikaku's catalog but didn't
know what they were.  There are not many "vocal" songs in the Ranma
TV series so I'm just wondering where they got all these songs to fill
up 4 CDs?

Are these 4 CDs good?  Recommendations?
