Am I alone in thinking this site dropped off hard post-Cinedigm purchase? Maybe they're just not advertising new additions as well anymore, but it seems like those have gone down to a trickle.

More stuff they can't give us a date on?
Still upset about how they announced "Baby and Me" nearly a year ago, and we have yet to get that in any language. |

Yup. I check the site every now and then for new arrivals and there's been nothing new since Persia the Magical Fairy. I just checked encyclopedia and that title was a launch title for RetroCrush, but wasn't added till last year (memory is fuzzy but pretty sure it was before this year). Ironically that title isn't available right now. It was subscriber-only at first but went free when I checked last week. Their website desperately needed an overhaul, so this update is welcomed (aside from the disappearing tiles). Hopefully their watchlist functionality works better now; it used to only show 12 entries, and anything new I add will kick off the least recently added one (FIFO behavior). Really annoying for folks like me who add lots of shows to watchlist. This news reminds me of HIDIVE's recent disappearances: animenewsnetwork.com/news/2022-12-08/hidive-some-temporarily-unavailable-series-expected-to-return-to-hidive-in-early-2023/.192712 Hope this doesn't become a common trend. |

I used their iPhone app recently to watch all they had of Kimagure Orange Road, and I noticed some other issues. Every now and then I'd be logged out for no apparent reason, the schedule listed for the live channel was never accurate, I had to disable portrait lock to watch in fullscreen (not necessary with the likes of Netflix and YouTube's apps), the interface would generally disappear partway through my process of skipping through the OP 10 seconds at a time (because no Skip Intro feature), and there didn't seem to be any kind of quick "start next episode" feature from the series menu, which for a 48-episode series like KOR TV meant I had to manually scroll through the whole thing, waiting every 12 episodes for it to scroll the next batch. |

I hope this means they'll fix the issue with genre tabs not loading that's been going on for awhile. Like I would click on action or sci-fi or something and none of the shows in those categories would load in the search results.
