Sir or madam, please go play in your sandbox, you're too stupid to be on the internet.

Anyway, that's good. The Funi app typically runs pretty well, and I enjoy it on the PS4.

The app is similar to Funimation's PlayStation 4 app, but adds a feature that allows users to keep an anime video in a sidebar while playing a game or other Xbox app.


Thought that's a feature for all XB1 apps due to the platform - multitasking (the XB1 is becoming more like a computer)

true.. you can do a more with your gaming console now a day..

but being a computer is not one of them.. it's not there yet..

i use my laptop for both work and personal purposes.. personally.. there's no device out there on the market at the moment can replace a laptop for me

now a day with tv already have apps.. might as well release apps for the tv instead..

since i don't see the point of turning on the console and then the tv..

2 devices drawing electrictiy at once.. when you can just use your tv.. Confused

So it's only currently available in the US and Canada? Here's hoping the app get's released in the EU. If Crunchyroll can provide for EU fans then it's about damn time Funimation increases it's range too.

The problem with smart TV apps is that just about every TV manufacturer wants to have their own app platform.

The fact that CR is discontinuing support on July 15 for their existing smart TV apps should give you an idea of how "popular" those platforms are with people that actually stream anime.

true... i noticed most smart tvs have netlfix and some other apps

but most of the apps are first party..

smart tvs are not quite there there.. some are wi-fi ready.. but the wi-fi card included in the tv can't seem to keep a stable/constant connection for streaming...

*Sigh* Why can't Legal English dubbed steaming services be available in Australia. Yes I like English dubs, so what.
