Soooo… does anyone have a torrent of a complete and unabridged copy of that library?

Would be interested in lending my assistance in seeding.

This is not about digital vs physical. CD's, DVD's and BluRay's are also a digital medium at the end of the day.

It was just a lie, there were no digital copies for purchase, they were only selling "lifetime" (as long as the service exists) rights to rent from them.

Buy physical or digital copies, whatever. Just be sure you are actually buying a copy.

I learned this back when iTunes purged all my purchases over a decade ago. Either stream or buy physical.

Yo ho, yo ho . . .

I see a lot of calls to just buy physical media but there are plenty of things that aren't available on physical media. But you can still make your own and depending on what it is, you might not need much to make copies. Games on Steam, for example, can be backed up by copying the installed files and finding a crack if it actually uses Steam's copy protection system (many games don't need cracks and can just be copied and run; such as Kerbal Space Program).

You can do this with GOG games too, and not even worry about cracks because they have no DRM, allowing you to merely make copies of the installers themselves.

Sounds like a good case for small claims court.

I refuse to support Funimation after how they handled the Vic Mignogna allegations. Them acquiring Crunchyroll, shutting down their own service and failing to actually improve CR with the content that Funimation Now had shows what scumbags they are.

Anime licensing in general is why sailing the high seas is so tempting.

Nobody but Funimation ever owned these files. Let's start calling a spade a spade and maybe people will start realizing how dumb of a purchase they are.
