Sony is erasing digital libraries that were supposed to be accessible “forever”::Casualties afoot as Sony merges Funimation with 2021-acquired Crunchyroll.
They’re less than shutting down. Funimation was where these shows are. Sony owns Funimation, and funimation bought crunchyroll. Funimation is switching their name to crunchyroll because it has more positive name recognition.
So funimation is essentially claiming that Funimation purchases will be null and void after funimation chooses to change its name to crunchyroll.
Also, since crunchy and fun were competitors and they were allowed to buy themselves into a near monopoly, they’re upping the subscription prices.
