This is only interesting because it is another example of how that stuff you "purchased" you do not own. In this case we are going to talk about anime content you "purchased" digital copies of on Funimation.
Funimation and Crunchyroll are two Anime sites on the internet. Crunchyroll is streaming only. Funimation also allowed people to purchase things, or hosted digital codes that were included when people purchased DVDs or Blu-rays that included a digital code. Those are all going away. Why? Because the two companies are merging.
From the Frequently Asked Questions about the merger.
What is going to happen to my digital copies?
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.
Translation: That stuff you thought you purchased, you don't own, and it is going away. You can explore what we have on Crunchyroll, but what you "purchased" is gone forever. Sorry that you didn't read the fine print.
Refunds? Don't be ridiculous!
