I used to do by Netflix, but not since a year ago where their selection goes downhill. I using now moustly CR, tose in Amazon free included in "prime" without to pay extras for channels are not that my interest ( s any ... I look through other websites ... )

Sounds like I should get VrV since it includes HiDive and Crunchyroll.

Right now I use prime, Crunchyroll, and Funimation.

I dislike Netflix and Hulu.

Yeah vrv is great for the US. Hidive doesn't have a great selection but with vrv you can watch it when you want to, plus crunchyroll which actually does have selection.

Others though said Hidive has exclusives.

They have plenty of exclusive crap.
They have good anime but not enough to pay them directly imo.
Vrv is a good deal.

You lucky ones!, here in UK we don't have many choices!,
Netflix, with really few new shows, (moustly 1, or 2 season older… ) except their "Exclusives" (I'm watchin Beastars on Fansub, coz Netflix has not yet Airing this. (Soo… I might re watch it when it came Dubbed)
… Amazon Prime …also really weak selection, if not paying extra for "funimaion Now channel", (in which case, better just pay for Funimation alone) ...( But none Funimation or CR are for Smart TV's. Ｔ＿Ｔ )
Hulu, and HiDive, … apart as you said, few good shows… not really working here in UK (…far as I try it.)

I go to Crunchyroll, Netflix, Hulu, and Youtube first. If it's a series that I can't find on any of them I'll find an outside source. Can't remember the name of the site I'm currently using.

minor rant because now it got me for a sec

I pay funimation occasionally because they have an ok selection that's ok to go through sometimes.
I pay netflix occasionally because they have an ok selection that's ok to go through sometimes.
I pay hidive occasionally because they have an ok selection that's ok to go through sometimes.
I pay hulu occasionally because they have an ok selection that's ok to go through sometimes.
I pay amazon anyway because shipping, so that's irrelevant to this point.

...and I've paid CR continuously for years because they've continuously had a great selection.

If funimation, netflix, hidive, or hulu, or any other fucking service decides to retain exclusive rights to an anime when I'm not paying for them because they think I should be paying for them all the time without them actually having a decent selection otherwise to back that up I will fucking torrent the shit out of that anime.

I do not represent AL in saying this. I shouldn't say this. But fuck it, that's 2020 mood.

I have the full suite of CR, HiDive (via VRV, via CR), Funi, Hulu, Netflix and Prime.

You don't pay HiDive directly do you? Because under CR's current subscription models it only costs like :2bux: more a month to upgrade to Premium+, which includes full VRV/HiDive access.

no, actually I'm just doing full VRV now so I get hidive anyway

I didn't mention VRV since UK doesn't have it

Crunchyroll, Youtube, and Anime Simple until recently. Switched to Gogo anime for anything that can't be found on Youtube or Crunchyroll.

I only watch the anime I've bought over the years, some on blu-ray, some on DVD. Our wifi isn't fast enough for us to stream anything unfortunately.

Post by **Ojisama** » 22 Dec 2021, 00:25

Crunchyroll at present. I will be catching up on Netflix now that we have joined it.
