I'm a paying member. I love being able to watch Natsume Yuujinchou the day it airs in Japan instead of waiting for fansubs, and I was able to start Shugo Chara. I'm thinking of watching Gintama and Detective Office 5 (jdrama) as well. Part of the reason why I bought a membership, despite having avoided using CR before, is because a good friend of mine works for them and I want to support her, as well as the bright future of web-based television programming and this kind of legitimate streaming website.
The only thing that annoys me? The thousands of WHINERS. "Oh noes, where did all the videos go? Bring back the videos! I don't want to pay! My mommy and daddy won't buy me a membership!"
The community there just SUCKS.
I made the mistake of reading posts in a forum for Soul Eater, which I had searched for wondering if Crunchy had obtained some rights to it (they do not, oh well). One user said, in response to the fansubbed videos being removed due to Funimation's license: "Why did they have to go and license it, it was so good!" Um, isn't that the POINT? It was GOOD, so they licensed it to be able to release it in North America. I had a forehead-slapping moment when I read that and comments like it.
