Anime UK News :: AOL & Bubblegum Crisis + Death Note update

Latest News & Rumours

AOL & Bubblegum Crisis + Death Note update	Fri, 11 May 2007
AOL began offering Bubblegum Crisis, the first anime series on its In2TV online video service, on May 2. The entire dystopic science-fiction series is available for free streaming with a compatible version of Adobe Flash Player. Episodes are also available for downloading in what the service calls "full screen, DVD quality video." Unlike the streams, the downloaded files include digital rights management for Windows-only playback, and cannot run on iPods. In related news, the Direct2Drive video download service began offering the first two episodes of Death Note in similarly restricted downloads yesterday (May 9th), a day early. Source: Anime News Network Note - After attempting to view the Bubblegum Crisis episodes via online streaming, i got the message 'not viewable in your area'. Which may mean that no one outside the USA can stream the video. However, after downloading required free software from the website, nothing has stopped me from starting a download of the episodes. (the first episode is about 440 MB, so depending on your connection, it could take a while to download.) Also, episodes 1 and 2 of Death Note cost $1.99 each (about Â£1.00) and registration with the Direct2Drive service is free and available to UK residents. Related: Bubblegum Crisis, Death Note
