Was Funimation looking to leave Crunchyroll in the dust with the funico deal? Or was that the interpretation of a variety of anime fan looking at the development of the streaming market through the filter of shonen fighting stories?
I remember I read an article on ANN I believe saying that it would be more difficult for CR because of that deal. The point was that Funimation could get home video rights as well. It's a really good thing it never happened... The deal with Sentai is fine (well if only we could get everything Sentai gets...) since CR do their own subs.
