This I have to wonder about too. The closest Japan to American release difference is going to be SJ Alpha when it is released, which will be on a 2 week delay.

Now, IMO that's close enough to justify the wait and subscribe, but a little voice in the back of my mind is like "If fans can get manga out within 24 hours having to scan it, clean it, etc, why can't the official company who has access to the manga in a digital format before it even prints do it in less than two weeks?"

Although IMO, there's still motivation to buy because having the volumes both is nice to collect and saves a lot of eyestrain from computer reading, but that's besides the point.

I think there's legal issues with the 2-week delay. I'm pretty sure it doesn't take that long to prep the chapters... I'm lettering one of the series that runs in it, and I thiiiink I get the files before they're out in Japan, the translation quickly after that, and turn in the final files a day or two after that. All in all, it takes maybe 5 days from getting the files to turning the company-approved ones in? I don't know if other series that run in it take longer, or putting the whole thing together takes a while, but I really think it's a legal matter… like the only way Shueisha would agree to the deal is to have a delay.

Sorry for the rambling! I totally get what you're saying and I agree (and that little voice in the back of my mind tells me the same thing), just adding my 2 cents on the matter.
