With the hunting down of translations, I did mean "find someone who has translated it, ask their permission and credit them in the file", yes.
I know a lot of work goes into translating the songs, and unfortunately I am totally unable to do it - my Japanese knowledge is somewhere along the lines of "Yay, I understood three words in that sentence! Go me!" *cough*
Currently I get the lyrics from AMNOS.net, and she has written in her FAQ that she doesn't require written permission but would like to be credited, so I have put the site URL at the end of the subs.
About the program: I currently use Subtitle Workshop, but I'm looking around to see if there's something with more possibilities, because right now I'm not even sure how to do that japanese-on-top/english-on-bottom thing you see in most karaoke vids... I'll let you know if I find something, kay? ^^
(Damn, where did my ability to write short replies go to? ^^;;; )
