That's better. *nod*
So, as to the question posed in the blog (whether light novels could become a profitable industry in America), I'm going with "no" for now. Not because I think they can't be profitable, but I'm sure there are some who don't quite trust these companies to not suddenly stop producing the material, leaving you with an uncomplete series.
...I'm looking at you, TokyoPop! Only doing volumes 1-8 of Slayers out of 15, what kind of crap is that? Especially when 9-15 is the actual material not covered in the anime.
