I'm not clear on this. Are people going to be able to download from Crunchyroll and not just stream? If so, then why are downloads on BOST going to be $1.99 and CR downloads pay-what-you-want?


I do not think Crunchy roll will be providing downloads. I think that Gonzo is just going to pop up an add or something saying "did you like this program, want to see more?" "Please donate!".

Frankly I think anyone who pays money for streaming content more than $1 an episode is a fool. For $2 (or less with the season discount) you could legally purchase downloads (and even a DRM free version ) from BOST that's higher quality anyway.

well it's working - there's a scoreboard for anyone who donates over $5 which I thought was pretty high for a single episode - yet three people have already donated $30. Also of note:
