A lot of people seemed to be confused why subtitle support would be important.

Nowadays a lot of anime is ripped to the OGM file container, which means that the subs are contained directly into the file, not in a separate file. I'm resorting to downloading the AVI versions for now but I still have a huge library of OGM files that I cannot watch because I don't understand enough Japanese.

Also, for external subtitle support, why would I want to re-encode my videos? This is one of the reasons why I didn't get a Zodiac and I sold my GP32. I have a video file on my computer, why should I have to recompress it just to watch it? I want to be able to throw it onto a storage card and watch it without doing anything more complicated than dragging and dropping a file.
