Well this is an improvement in my opinion. Much more vibrant design and darn if they didn't make it a lot easier to find those previews. (I got totally lost looking for the School Rumble one to show my sister a while back.)

Maybe a little too bright though.

I like it! I don't really remember what the old site looked like but this one looks nice. Although...I've never understood how they can have preview trailers for manga.

It's not too unusual really; there have been video trailers for novels before. (They did a series of pretty darn good ones for James Paterson's novels.) The one for that OEL that Avril Lavigne was involved with actually made me interested in it.

Besides, it allows them to target people who normally don't partake of non-moving image based media.

And the old site wasn't too different, but it wasn't the most user-friendly website of all time. (Although it was much better than Tokyo-We-Wish-Were-My-Space-Pop's nightmare.)

It's been a long time since I looked at the Del Rey site (like, back when they just started) but it seems like an improvement over what I remember. Not the greatest, but decent.
