CrunchyRoll members don’t just upload videos, they also subtitle them and this is called "fansubbing". Apparently the community isn’t happy with the success that CrunchyRoll has received and the round of funding and have begun to show their feelings on the deal. Hung explains that the Fansubbers could also be the target of legal action. Check out Hung’s research on the topic.

But seriously ... fansubbers do a great service, even if its legally dubious, as there is a ton of stuff that just isn't available even for purchase if you want subtitled stuff, irrespective of what the native language is. If you've ever discovered fansubbed material, it will just blow your mind how dedicated some of these guys are. Cheers t @ dji @Allen — thanks.
