"Illegal out-of-print manga file purification plan" starts from April 12

Although it is not a problem to personally enjoy comic magazines and books purchased by you, it is not good to share it with someone or distribute it to an unspecified majority. However, in reality it is also true that ZIP files that organize these scanned images are distributed through various routes. I just do not have any problems if I only want to read, but nothing is returned to the creator of that work, rather the motivation of creation is rather low.

This, "out of print manga sharing system"J comicI got up to manage it somehow. J comic will start official service from the afternoon of 12th April, but according to this "Illegal out-of-print manga file purification planIt is said to start.

The full picture of this plan with a nice name is from the following.

(18) illegal out-of-print manga file purification plan - person in J comi Co., Ltd.


J comic is an out-of-print manga sharing system established by Ken Akamatsu, a cartoonist known for works such as "Magical teacher Negima!" And "Love Hina". It is an epoch-making system that displays advertisements in manga by comic viewer and PDF, and all advertisement revenue obtained by that is returned to writers.

When collecting "Mach SOS" (Akita Bookstore "Adventure King" series) that Akamatsu himself liked very much at the Internet auctionEven if I bought it at auction, I do not get 1 yen to Mr. Sakuragata Tadako, right?"Then, after grasping the reality that stopping the illegal manga file (illegal ZIP file) flowing in the net will be quite difficult," ThenLet's publish the scanned manga file with permission and give the creator the advertisement fee obtained by advertisement put in cartoonJ comic was made with the idea of ​​"Hello!

At first, Mr. Akamatsu was quite good as a result of testing with his own work "Love Hina", so it was decided that services will be officially launched from 12th April.

It is "illegal out-of-print manga file purification plan" to start in parallel. As mentioned above, an illegal ZIP file is rolling around on the Internet and on the P2P network, but even if this file is downloaded and the manga is read, the author will not enter a monetary amount. Publishing companies are patrolling if it is a magazine currently being published, but out-of-print cartoons and doujinshi are situations where nobody is trying to protect their rights.

Therefore, at J Commi, it seems to start a plan to collect and purify illegal ZIP files of out of print cartoons, with the help of the net residents.

Akamatsu says that the way it looks like the following.

1. First of all, if you have "illegal out-of-print manga file" or someone who knows the solo that exists on P2P such as Winny or Share, please submit the actual thing to J comic (upload) I want it.
2. These files are not immediately announced. J Communicate with the author, publish after "purifying" with permission. We will use it as "Atonement".
3. If the file is not out-of-print manga, it will be erased without being published to anyone anywhere.
4. If you are unsure whether out of print or new work, J comics and author judge.
5. As soon as the author's OK is obtained, it will be automatically announced on all pages of the manga and announced, advertising revenue can be given to the author. Of course, the share of J comic is 0%.
6. If the author's OK is not obtained, the file is abandoned and continues to flood the hell (Winny). Perhaps forever · · ·.

The final goal of this plan is "Replacing all 'illegal out-of-print manga files' flowing on the net with 'regular version with advertisement (thing that the author made OK')!That's right.

If the plan goes well, the illegal file becomes a legal file, and the author of that manga will earn income and everyone will be glad ... .... Perhaps it is a difficult attempt, but it may be best to introduce a large number of new legal files to counter P2P, once the file that flowed out drifts forever. I am paying attention to the battle of J comic from tomorrow.
