Where do the best speakers come from? And the most elegant designs?

Mostly Japan and Master Nagaoka.

And where did Brian Setzer and the Orchestra record their
only live dvd? Hmmhmmm.

At the same time there's a growing mainstream interest in
_anime_ here; so much so that the graphic novels have been picked up
by Barnes and Noble. And the fan sites do their own subtitling.

I would love to know how that ties into the dvd authoring market.
