Store The new store is shit
I feel like I'm probably not alone in this, but the new store is garbage. They got rid of all the manga and then they put the store by him to paywall so people who aren't members can't buy. They think that they're so exclusive they can charge people a membership just to shop. Even though nothing they have is worth a membership, you can get everything they have somewhere else. The only reason I was even paying for the highest membership was for the 15% discount on the 7 to 8 manga I was buying every month. And the occasional figure every once in awhile. But now they got rid of the manga. And now it looks like they're focusing on dropping new apparel, which is incredibly stupid.
I honestly don't know what they were thinking. It seems like they got rid of a bunch of stuff. I get it. Maybe they get rid of stuff cuz it wasn't selling but it just seems dumb. They really gave a lot of people a reason to either downgrade their membership or just stop using crunchyroll all together. I guess it does make sense why they got rid of manga after all though. That's a physical thing and Sony owns Crunchyroll and Sony doesn't want you to own anything. I'm surprised they still sell blu-rays and DVDs on the store. I'd be willing to bet that shit's going away soon too because Sony doesn't want discs anymore. No physical media according to Sony.
