(NEVA) or in Japanese 日本ビデオ倫理協会 (Nippon Bideo Rinri Kyoukai or Japan Video Morality Association) usually abbreviated as ビデ倫 (bide-rin or vide-rin). In response, SOD in 1996 began its own regulatory group known as the Media Ethics Association (Media Rinri Kyoukai or メディア倫理協会) usually abbreviated as medi-rin（メディ倫). Medi-rin was composed of "indie" companies, independent AV studios which explored porn themes forbidden by NEVA rules and which used a thinner censorship mosaic for their videos. Medi-rin was re-organized in 2005 to form the Content Soft Association (CSA) called in Japanese コンテンツ・ソフト協同組合 (Software Content Association) to review and regulate adult videos and adult game software. The CSA has more than 65 members among AV producers comprising most of the SOD group and some other major companies. Members include:
