Another benefit of [=DLsite=] is many of their products are UsefulNotes/{{D|igitalRightsManagement}}RM[=-=]agnostic, which can be a great way to import doujin games digitally, however, some creators can choose whether or not to use [=DLsite=]'s own user account verification methods to prevent unauthorized distribution of their work. Some games sold through the overseas version of [=DLsite=] may also have been given an English localization by [=DLsite=] themselves, the doujin circle, or from third-party translators or publishers. However, most of the other games released through [=DLsite=] are, for the most part, straight digital re-releases of their original Japanese version unless stated otherwise on their product page, and [=DLsite=] also assumes that you have some way to run Japanese games on your computer if they have not been translated, which [[UsefulNotes/RegionCoding may or may not run]] non-Japanese operating systems, so please consider purchasing such games from other distributors such as UsefulNotes/{{Steam}} or from the publisher if they have an overseas (and possibly updated) version of the game in question elsewhere. Some games do however feature a demo version that you can try out before you purchase the full game.

[[https://www.dlsite.com/eng/ DLsite]] is a Japanese UsefulNotes/{{digital distribution}} website that was founded by EISYS, Inc. in 1996. The website caters to the {{otaku}} sub-culture, in which they distribute various {{doujinshi}} works through their site for those that may not been able to attend to conventions such as Comiket where they were originally released. This also means that the site also contains many {{N|otSafeForWork}}SFW products that centers around various {{fetish}}es that's common with Japanese media, however there is an "All-Ages" section of the website which hides adult-only products away for those that are sensitive to such content (well, most of the time), in which this article will be focusing on the All-Ages portion of the website.

As stated above, a major selling point of [=DLsite=] is digital distribution of doujin-related products, ranging from image sets, manga, [[DoujinSoft video games]], and various forms of audio, which gives many the opportunity to purchase some of these goods that were originally released in conventions at the comfort of their own home. Importing such goods from territories outside of Japan was however a difficult endeavor for some as the site only accepted Japanese Yen and signing up for the website was not so easily accessible for those that can't read Japanese. This changed as of May 14, 2015 as [=DLsite=] has launched an English-language version of the website, allowing those overseas to be able to digitally import doujin works much more easily with domestic currency, but at the time the adult-only content was also visible on the English version of [=DLsite=] without a way to hide them away for a time. The website eventually established a work-safe version of the site, but like its Japanese version, some risque products are also shown in the All-Ages albeit without nudity or outright pornography. [=DLsite=] also eventually added support for other languages (Spanish, French, Italian, German, and Chinese) to the site. Despite being much more accessible to Western territories in recent years, there are some products however that are not yet available on the overseas version of the site or translated for non-Japanese speakers.

For those looking to import doujin games digitally from [=DLsite=], many games released on the site are UsefulNotes/{{D|igitalRightsManagement}}RM[=-=]agnostic and does not by itself use copy-protection in many of their games (or other products), with a few games receiving an English-language version by [=DLsite=] in-house, the doujin circle itself, or from third-party publishers or {{fan translat|ion}}ors. However, most of the other games released through [=DLsite=] are, for the most part, straight digital re-releases of their original Japanese version unless stated otherwise on their product page, and [=DLsite=] also assumes that you have some way to run Japanese games on your computer if they have not been translated, which [[UsefulNotes/RegionCoding may or may not run]] non-Japanese computers, so please consider purchasing such games from other distributors such as UsefulNotes/{{Steam}}, Playism, or from the publisher if they have an overseas version of the game in question elsewhere. Some games do however feature a demo version that you can try out before you purchase the full game.
