As Funimation drama unravels, here's a reminder for you that yt-dlp is able to download Funimation videos. Use that opportunity to preserve your collections before they're gone! (and keep them forever and ever)

Credits to humble jbk@discuss.tchncs.de who brought that up!

Not a lawyer but it seems in lot of EU cases companies, e.g Apple or Facebook, go with 2 versions, i.e one for EU customers and one (usually the bad one) for others. I'd bet in the case either they pay the fine or make 2 versions.

    It would be weird to do so I think. Crunchyroll doesn’t even allow to buy anime so I think they will allow people to download the ones they own on fun

    Thankfully we have the EU to stand up to these companies. Shame my country left it and we have Tories desperately trying to implement the dystopia of American corporate scamming that appears to be consumer culture in most developed countries on the other side of the world.
