I just found out about Yahoo! View, and it’s because the free video streaming service is shutting down at the end of the month. Yahoo! View is still live until June 30, though, and is a streaming service that lets anyone watch content from Hulu for free.

A lot of anime fans were using it to watch their favorite anime for free legally. The report came from @WTK over on Twitter, and there doesn’t appear to be any indication why, although some fans are blaming Disney who recently took control of Hulu. Looks like fans who want to watch anime (or other content) legally will have to get their own plans or beg their friends and family to let them use their plans.

Did you use Yahoo! View or were you also unaware that the service existed?
