    This is a strange move from a country that is usually the most overprotective when it comes to copyright. Though I guess if you view it from a “pro-business” view then it might make sense. Sucks a ton for artists though.

        Yeah, in retrospect it does seem on brand for Japan. Just feels weird after being used to them cracking down on anything even mildly copyright infringing.
