AniDB

There is word "RAW" in some ed2k links. What does this mean?
THX

RAW means japanese audio without subs (=> the way stuff is aired in japan).
As most ppl don't speak japanese those files won't be any good to them.
Therefore AniDB marks the ed2k filenames of all files which have been added with audiolanguage: japanese and sublanguage:none with an extra RAW tag.

BYe!

I thought so. One more question. Why is it word "RAW"?

It's "raw" as in "not subbed" (or with external subs) - from the perspective of us anime-fans outside Japan.

I`m sorry. I thought it was an abbreviation.
