At least they didn't start Seirei yet. There are many other shows ending in mid-release leaving people collecting the DVDs for those shows high and dry.

There was no doubt in my mind that I would have purchased the R1 DVDs had they been released in the States. I sincerely hope Geneon passes the baton to someone else, hopefully a licensor willing to invest the effort this remarkable show deserves.
They have not closed their doors as much as suspending operations until they can reorganize, I see it now quality and staff drooped to make localizations "more hip" *shudders*
