History Creator / VRV

The main purpose of VRV was to unite related content from Website/{{Crunchyroll}} and other Otter Media properties, such as Creator/RoosterTeeth and Fullscreen, with third-party partners that specialized in geek entertainment under one roof. Each partner's content was organized into channels that could be purchased à la carte, or as an all-in-one combo pack.

While some of VRV's content (include those of Otter Media own brands) could still accessed independently of the site, others were exclusive to the service. This wouldn't be a problem had it not been for the fact VRV was exclusive to the United States and many of its partners, such as [[Creator/FrederatorStudios Frederator]]'s Cartoon Hangover and Creator/MondoMedia, who have previously made their content available worldwide on Website/YouTube, [[NoExportForYou were producing content exclusively for VRV]].

After Crunchyroll was sold to Sony in 2020, various third party partners, such as [=HIDIVE=] and Cartoon Hangover, would leave the service. The service was eventually folded into Crunchyroll in April 2023.
