It's kind of funny...
I live in sweden and i buyed a lot of dvds from the US. And I entered funimations website a lot before to check out what new dvd's that were coming, to see what i whant to buy. Is this what they what (that foregins dont buy there dvd's). Or do they what us not to downloade ther shows. Just sad that they have to region block websites. I thot internet was free :(

well l been to their sites as well , and gotta admit their reasoning is more than weird, l can buy any DVD from any country and have it shipped to me, l bought Samurai Warriors 2 original Japanese version, by simply kontacting KOEI and paying for it to them and they shipped it to me lol, l can buy anything, and so can you if you play it hard enough, but their actions are really weird, instead of opening market to buyers they try to close it.

Well, times change, my friend. This internet is becoming a censored place.

So this is what happened to Funimation, I thought this applied to all people, but only U.S. outsiders, it seems, kind of sad I think. I mean, we're not even allowed to browse their site. I can understand that they don't have the licences for us to view videos, but this is kind of stupid.
