Funimation has been merging into Crunchyroll for a while now, but what wasn't immediately obvious (except in pessimistic and unfortunately now proven accurate ways) was what was happening to digital libraries available through Funimation.
Turns out, it's exactly what you would expect; Sony said "fuck you digital owners, you get shit", and nearly doubled the price on Crunchyroll at the same time to boot ($55 > $100 yearly, $6 to $10 monthly)!

This is your never-ending reminder that digital ownership is absolutely not forever, companies are invariably as anti-consumer as they can afford to be, and piracy remains absolutely the most logical choice in any case where it is available.
IE: Haha, get fucked, you paid full product price to rent the product for as long as we deemed to provide it, now we are taking it away because we can. Here, you can have this other product, where you may (or may not) be able to watch said content that you already bought, at a low low price of more than zero dollars even though you already own it!We understand that you may have concerns about your digital copies from Funimation. These Digital copies available on Funimation were a digital access to the content available on the DVDs or Blu-rays purchased.
Please note that Crunchyroll does not currently support Funimation Digital copies, which means that access to previously available digital copies will not be supported. However, we are continuously working to enhance our content offerings and provide you with an exceptional anime streaming experience. We appreciate your understanding and encourage you to explore the extensive anime library available on Crunchyroll.
