Fujisankei News Express

I'll be using this topic to post Japanese entertainment clippings from Fujisankei NEWS EXPRESS. This 1-hour news program is broadcast from FUJI-TV. However, I'll only be posting the last few minutes, which is where they report on the lighther stories, including news on Japanese drama and recording artists.

Unfortunately, FUJI-TV does not sub these news pieces. Unless I specify otherwise, each news piece will be in DivX 5.x video codec. Size of the uploads will be at least 10MB each. Uploads won't be every day -- more likely it'll be about once a week, and only when the subject matter of the clips involve Japanese entertainment. And, because I can't speak or read Japanese, in some cases I won't be able to identify the subject matter. If one of you can correctly identify the content, please post! :)

Some things I ask of you:

- Do not bookmark the links. I'll be changing the URLs (move to different servers, etc.), or deleting them when needed, so bookmarking won't be affective in the long term.

- Don't upload the links to other web sites. My web site logs show the referring URL, so if I find non-JDorama.com referrals, bye-bye files.

- Do not play them while downloading. That wastes my bandwidth. Please Save As... the entire file to your hard disk, then play the file from your HD.

Enjoy!
