Disney is raking its customers over the coals with a 75% price hike for their annual subscription (originally $80.) People wonder why piracy is on the rise.Multiple commenters are saying I'm off base about the 75% price increase. My payment less than a year ago was $79.99. Here's the proof.

    Yep, it feels like we’re about to see the second wave of piracy, and more and more people are going to dust off their jolly Rogers. $80 was worth it for the catalog, but the price hike is completely unjustifiable. I’ve already canceled my sub, and I’m betting there will be plenty who do the same. A 75% increase is egregious.

      Disney made a movie called Crater that was removed from their catalog after just two weeks. It is only available via piracy.

      I haven’t watched it because that would be illegal, but it’s almost like they want us to pirate. Heck, I would never have heard about Final Space if the animator hadn’t raised a stink after it got removed from the WB catalog.
