Lol expect MORE and MORE hikes. They know how much money you have, they want it all and they will not stop raising the cost because y’all keep paying it.

The issue with price-hikes for subscriptions to me seems like it was always inevitable, and a no-brainer to solve. Disney, Netflix, and Hulu have no reason to lower their costs as long as people set-and-forget their subscriptions. The obvious solution is to stop subscribing and to buy a single month from a single service when you have a number of shows/movies you want to watch.

Paying $20 once per year to watch all the newest Marvel and Star Wars shows and movies in the span of a month at the cost of avoiding spoilers at release is a solid deal if you ask me. Paying $20 every month because you want to feel like you “own” the library of Disney’s media is a horrible decision.

There’s no unjustification for piracy anymore. If you’re gonna charge me this much to use your shitty streaming services that I use once in a blue moon then don’t cry when I instead download an mp4.

Unsub’d. Fuck that noise, I really only use them for Simpsons reruns between movies I give a shit about. So now I’ll steal the Simpsons and the movies. They overplayed their hand here.

Do you want pirates? This is how you get pirates.

I’m not defending them, but this was clearly always the plan. It was obvious they intended to enter the market just under competitor prices to establish a foothold and then later charge more and reset the industry standard in doing so.

Again, I’m not saying it doesn’t suck, because it does, but this was clearly the Disney+ game plan since day 1

I canceled last week. I paid to bundle hulu and Disney so I could lock in the year before the price hike. Hulu would never allow me to log in, I spent 7+ hours with tech support over the last month with them literally having me log in and out over and over without doing anything on their end. Never got logged in.

Several times they tried to sell me that I had to accept the ad tier or the one that included ESPN (which you know full well will get bigger cost spikes) despite promising I wouldn’t have to change plans.

I finally told them to cancel and refund the days. I haven’t pirated in over 4 years, because I finally make enough money and wanted to support content and have easy setup on products as my mom and daughter (outside of household) and my husband and son (in household) depend on me.

I started with a VPN and streaming this week. I will be working on jellyfin in the next week. They could have had my money, but they want to fuck around with my time, money, and content. I’m pissed and done.

This is rich coming from the company that literally wrote “Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate’s life for me!”

Just canceling and not watching things is also an option. There’s so much stuff out there to do, you’ll probably never get bored.

These streaming companies are dreaming. I hope people will just stop streaming. There will be massive street markets for hard drives and thumb drives loaded with pirated content.

I already cancelled my subscription. I’m going to the subscription hopping plus piracy route now for D+.

Disney’s desperation is showing—just look at their stock price the past 2 years… down 50%

I’m honestly surprised they didn’t raise their subscription fees sooner. Unfortunately for them it’s a double edged sword, which will cause a lot of people to cancel and quite possibly harm them in the long run.

What in the actual flying fuck…

Hi, I just wanted to let everyone know that I’m changing the annual piracy subscription from nothing to 0 on the 31st of October. If you carry on then you’ll end up exactly where you’re headed. Thanks and have fun.

You’ll continue to enjoy 12 months for the price of 20.
