That's fucked up. I really wish there were legal alternatives to CR here. HIDIVE pulled out, Wakanim merged with CR and now it's just CR for 90% of anime. There is no choice. Yeah sure Netflix and Disney+ have the occasional anime, but the vast majority is on CR. How the merger got past market authorities is wild to me. It's a near monopoly. I watch on my TV, so sailing the seven seas for streaming sucks too.

If you have a smart tv or fire stick etc see if you can install Plex. Plex let's you stream your local video library from your PC.

Yeah, I do this for my Blurays (with Jellyfin tho), but I don't really want to bother with downloading seasonal anime episodically. I'd rather use streaming sites for that.

Totally fair. Look into the sonarr and radarr plugins. They let you add sources and shows to a watchlist and will grab new episodes weekly.

I'm so glad I made the decision to cancel CR, they are constantly biting the hands that feed them when there are dozens of free sites to watch this stuff.

If my tv had an app for those free sites I'd use them

Tv app and consistent video quality for me.

Don't have Netflix so I checked out delicious in dungeon on a pretty good pirate site, but episode 13 was in subpar quality Soni haven't continued

Looks like Nintendo has competition for biggest asshole

Nintendo's biggest competition for the "Worst Way to Treat Its Own Customers" award: Sony.

When something is morally ok, no harm is being done but according to law is illegal, law probably should be changed.
