If a company distributes their own discs do you list them twice?

R1 Anime studios produce an English dub, and subtitles (and some other localized films too, not just Japanese Anime) so I think that would qualify them as a studio and not just a distributor. 

As examples:

Moribito. The English version is produced by Anime Works (studio), and distributed by Media Blasters. No Problem.
Air. The English version is produced by ADV, who also distribute their own titles.
Do you list ADV twice? Once as a studio and also as a distributor?


Side Note: The rules use - DVD publishing company. The program uses - Distributor.
That could cause confusion and they may not even be the same thing for all releases (Geneon).

Yes I think that I would list them twice.

You are not using the latest build (1240). The release version (1240) shows Publisher. Ken posted that that was the only change from 1239 to 1240.

It sounds like you're asking the same thing as this thread.

Your right... It was the voting screen that still has Distributor. Looks like I got confused
