So, just be clear, we’re not going to be sued into oblivion by The Rolling Stones for this one.
Earlier today, Crunchyroll parent company Ellation announced several new channels for its upcoming VRV subscription service. The following will join the platform’s lineup:
- Funimation
- RiffTrax
- Mondo
- GinX: eSports TV
- Machinima
- CollegeHumor
- Adam Savage’s Tested
- Shudder
The new offerings add six previously confirmed channels:
- Crunchyroll
- Cartoon Hangover
- Rooster Teeth
- Seeso
- Nerdist Alpha
- Geek & Sundry Alpha
VRV will be available both as a free ad-supported platform, as well as an ad-free paid subscription. Certain exclusive and original content will require a subscription, including Cartoon Hangover’s premium offerings. In a recent announcement, Crunchyroll made it clear that they will continue to offer their stand-alone products in addition to their presence on VRV.
VRV will make its initial roll-out on the following platforms:
- iOS
- Android
- XBox One
- Web Browsers (Chrome, FireFox, etc.)
- “Living Room Internet TV Devices” (Unnamed)
As of press time, VRV is exclusive to residents in the United States. Pricing for the premium service will be announced at a later date, though Ellation revealed that customers can purchase the entire channel collection as a bundle, or individual channels à la carte. Customers who subscribe to all channels will receive a discount on their bill.
Customers can sign up for early access via the VRV website.
