The title and the thumb are trash but he showed very well the issue. They go all digital, then close the eshop and fuck the access to all that library.

Morally correct if you are unable to access that work without it jeopardizing your economic survival, it doesn't matter where or who that work comes from.

Crunchyroll just announced they're locking certain arcs behind higher tier subscriptions. Hopefully the backlash convinced them that it's a bad idea. Either way poopy company.
