The story behind.

Odex is a company which has the distributor's rights to quite a number of Jap Animes in Singapore.

Few months back, they employ a US company to track down the IP Address of Singapore users who had been downloading Jap Animes.

Thru the IP Address, they went to Singnet and Singnet gave them the particulars of which the IP Address belongs to. Odex sent lawyer's letter to them (about 17 of them) and got them to pay a fine ranging from $1000 to $5000.

Odex went to Starhub, but Starhub decline to give the particulars of those IP Address. Odex went to Court and got an order for Starhub to release them. Starhub got no choice to give the particulars to Odex. (abt 1000 according to Odex) This made the Jap Anime Community very furious about it.

Main complain was that Odex was slow in releasing their VCD for locals, and by the time they released the VCD, fans already can't wait and had download from the internet, watch it, and talk about it liao. Also the quality of the VCD release sucks and can't even compare to those fansub which is downloaded from the net. Also the fine that Odex wanted was too much for some as some of those downloaders are still students.

Now, after successfully getting Starhub to release the particulars thru Court Order, Odex is going to Pacific Net with the same request liao.
