Why do people make such a big deal about who releases certain anime? I guess some companies are higher-quality than others. I honestly don't know....

well for one ADV sucks more ass then an ass sucking...ass sucker

Dub wise anyway, their manga is...ok but then they go out and get THE BEST SHOWS AVAILABLE (most of the time) and ruin them with their horrid dubs =/ but allt he other companies are fine by me

I don't listen to dubs (more than half of my DVDs have never had the English track selected), so I'm speaking of subtitle quality and accuracy, and video and audio quality. These are all my personal impressions of these companies.

And keeping with the CLAMP theme:

Pioneer's/Geneon's and ADV's releases tend to be of very high quality. Beautiful video, with accurate, well-designed subs.

Pioneer/Geneon has released:
X (TV and OVA)
Card Captor Sakura
Chobits

ADV has released:
Angelic Layer
Miyuki-chan in Wonderland

Bandai and Media Blasters releases tends to be good to high quality, depending on how good their masters are. Video quality can vary, and their subtitles are usually very good.

Bandai has released:
CLAMP School Detectives (no DVD release yet)

Media Blasters has released:
Magic Knight Rayearth (TV series)

CPM releases are usually good quality, but they often have only fair video quality, given the age of the shows they're releasing. Their subs can range from excellent to mediocre.

CPM has released:
Tokyo Babylon
RG Veda

Manga Entertainment has released:
Rayearth (OVAs)
X (Movie)

Manga releases are usually poor quality. Fair to poor video quality, and ridiculously inaccurate and poorly formatted subtitles.

I bet they're fansubs.

Around yesterday, I downloaded Clamp in Wonderland in its complete form; it included the end credits of the music video and it's fansubbed.
