Given the similiarities between the titles I would think they should wait a little while between the last volume of Air and the first volume of Kanon, at least as long as between Kanon and Clannad (which I think was too short a time spread as well but I guess that's the bare minimum to go by that we know of). Otherwise people won't know which one to buy.

Though ADV's business practices seem to be akin to a self-inflicted gunshot wound, such as licensing anything and everything in site (for a while) and putting a poor effort into the subtitles and dub (at least in the case of my Dunbine DVD's). For a while there it seemed like they were trying to crash the market 1980's video game crash style, so who knows exactly what they have in mind with this.

Who wants to call Crispen Freeman as Yuuichi if they do license it though?
