Grrr

Considering the whole point of the alliance was to serve as a bulwark against Amazon and Netflix being able to gobble up all the releases, I wouldn't be surprised if it died even ignoring the Sony purchase. It seems to have served its purpose for now, but I'm guessing it will continue for a while longer on inertia.

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.
