livingfruitvirus posted:Amazon and Netflix can win against CR/Funi/VRV by simply outspending them, which they're fully capable of. Whether they want to or not depends on their priorities. Those two pay license fees that cost more than the production itself, and when the Japanese producers get a taste of those fees they don't want to go back to anything less if they don't have to. You'll never see a new Fate series on Crunchyroll again now that Netflix has their talons in it. I'm OK with Anime Strike going the way of the dodo, but I feel that, flawed as Strike was, it created a sense of competition.

Japanese producers are, no doubt, sad to lose them. Crunchyroll and Funimation... probably not so much. I don't think this will cool off license fees very much for the immediate future, but at least we're now less likely to see them continue to push higher.
