I have Verizon FiOS which means i already have FUNimation Channel, free at that. Anyway, i was browsing On Demand and usually FUNimation's On Demand list is under "The Cutting Edge" section along with Adult Swim. Well, recently when i went looking for it, it wasn't there. I thought it had got moved to another section or something but i looked all around On Demand and couldn't find FUNimation anywhere. What happened? Is it just me, or...
(Wait, it can't be me, i went over my Grandfathers house the other day and he too has FiOS and it was missing there too)
I still have the FUNimation Channel itself, just not it's On Demand page.
FiOS TV has temporarily suspended the On Demand part of the channel.
How did you get it free? They told me that if I wanted it I had to buy the more expensive package!
thanks for the update. I'm glad I wasn't the only one with this issue. Domo Arigato ^_^

yes thank you for the update.
I have been looking at FOD since I got Comcast (gawd I cant wait til I get my roku!) Im a little upset now, they switched the good free shows to the premium location-and in mid series at that! Yall need to be ashamed of yourselves Funimation! I was looking at Ouran Host Club for free dammiT!! Why should I have to pay for the episodes now??!?!? If anything, yall should have switched the Excel Saga over-sooooo can do without that series (maybe it sounds better subbed than dubbed o-0) altho I do like the opening song.........
The on-demand service is not run by FUNimation but by Olympusat, Inc. and they are limited by amount of bandwidth provided by the cable companies; they cannot keep episodes up permanently.
Same thing happen to me.I was waiting for the next episodes on Funimation to come but I notice that they move Ouran High School Host Club, Fruits Basket,Mermaid Melody to the other Funimation that you have to pay for [b]I DON'T THINK SO I'M NOT GOING TO PAY FOR THEM TO WATCH IT I DON'T THINK SO

The point is not that the episodes are gone they do have expiration dates, it is the fact that they moved once free series to pay half way through.
For example Ouran and Fruits Basket have been on VOD on and off for free for years now they are under "Iconic Anime" and you have to pay $1 per view
The only thing on the Funimation Free right now is 1 episode of Big Windup. My Bride Mermaid which had been free is now Platinum. Is Funimation stopping their free on demand?
They better not stop Funimation watching it for free.They also took off was the ' genre' one with Daram/Comedy and the other Action/Fantasy off.
