After Otakon 2000 (Aug), I went looking for info on a show called Love Hina because I loved the 4 eps I saw when they previewed the fansubs there. Among my searches I found a website that shared all the Love Hina eps that had been subbed at that point. Most of them where Anime-Fansubs, but the first one was done by Anime-Factory. After getting my friend involved in a little download frenzy, we found another show completed and released by Anime-Factory called Candidate for Goddess and it looked like it was done before Love Hina, probably in early 2000. I don't recall anything before those 2 shows that I would have considered digi-subbed the way we know it now. So I would have to give the Kudos for oldest group to Anime Factory. But I would have to say that biggest catalyst that propelled popular digi-subbing was Love Hina.
