DRM does not work. We tell studios this when we license and so far have gotten approval to show everything without it. If the platform can prove that while they go without DRM, they are strict with ensuring fraudulent signups do not happen and users can't easily abuse the system, they're more OK with not using 'copy-guard' (what DRM is often called in Japan).

Prestige back in January starting putting up movies on AdultTime. They also have VR movies up on SLR. I do agree that not localizing MGStage is a travesty.

There already are a few other sites like DMM in Japan: the aforementioned MGStage, Duga, and more. Regardless of studio payout %, from an end-user perspective, they are near identical: basically the same prices for the same movies locked down with restrictive DRM requiring use of some dinky player. Studios should consider putting their wares on a fan-oriented DRM-free platform. Perhaps one with English subtitles like...well, you can figure it out. :)

Joking aside, the one studio I think is making the best of Japan's climate is Faleno. They seem to be releasing their movies first on their own platform for a short period of time before sending them out for wider release.

Nao look fantastic at 35 and even 20 year olds would be jealous of her. Like Maki and Yuu, she's just getting better as she gets older--not that 35 is old by any means.
