I have two questions for Tempest or Justin:
Will the simulcasts get their own heading under the video tab, or will they be listed with all the other shows in the anime section? As subscription based services I would think that they would be separate, but I can be funny about some things.
Will a link for the subscription purchase be posted somewhere on the site or will it be a pop up when one of the shows is selected for viewing? With the restart only a couple of days away I would go ahead and buy a subscription, but I haven't been able to find a link.

Do you have many or any other "ANN exclusive" hosted shows? Nodoby's Boy Remi is exclusive to ANN, right?
I guess that might be an option to separate those with the simulcasts?
The way it is now it's mainly a menu of shows also found on Funimation, Hulu, Crunchyroll, Toonzaki, etc. etc. etc.
Nice that they're mostly all in one place, but I have to admit ANN is not usually the place I come too first to look for video but it'd be nice to be able to spot the shows that are only on ANN.
Maybe just change the link color to make them stand out in your list?
