We knew the writing was on the wall for Rooster Teeth when RWBY went to Crunchyroll, and not just that, but as a premium exclusive. That pretty well said they were hurting for money and trying to find it in whatever way they could. RT has also been in bad straits because at least some of their people were being terrible to other on-air people, and that pretty well hurt the other parts of the studio as well.

I can hope that some of the IP will continue to get made in other places, possibly with better support, but it is the end of a era for RT and for the pioneering things they did in proving to the rest of us that they could make video for the Internet and make it go well.
