I just got a blue ray of samurai champloo - mostly because I'm sick of media in general cycling through multiple streaming services only to become unavailable.
The SC blue ray came with a digital copy from funimation (now crunchyroll). I saw online that it's basically a scam that doesn't work so to see for myself I created a paid account to hopefully get access to the digital download.
I found out it was unsupported, and at best it would only be available online and with an account - no opportunity for actual download/ownership.
So I immediately cancelled subscription and had them fully delete my account. I figured complaining about their shit policy by cancelling a paid service and fully deleting an account would hit some metrics at least.
When there's a show/movie I really enjoy, I either buy physical, or torrent so I actually have it. Only some things on the internet are forever, and with the volume of content being created, "permanent" is now often only for a few months before it becomes nearly impossible to find again.
Weird, I have permanent access to Samurai Champloo on my Jellyfin server. I would have paid given the option, but, y'know, they wouldn't sell this kind of service.
