TLDR:

Current ad free plans for Disney+ and Hulu are now raising $3 more on October 12. Both becoming $13.99 and $17.99.

They’re losing subscribers and money so I guess it’s not surprising. I’m down to zero streaming services after cutting back this year. The last couple subscriptions I’ve gotten I immediately cancelled and binge watched for the month my subscription lasted. There was no need to extend the subscription after that. Most services you can exhaust the content in a month or two of heavy use.

I don't get why the "not surprising" way to react when you are losing subscribers is rising prices so more subscribers gtfo.

Come on, you are FUCKING DISNEY. Get everything up to 50's/60's for free and make some plan to have limited free streaming of this or that movie (call it "disney watching parties" or something like that, make it be available during a same slot of time, put some hashtags and let people give you free publicity) so you can attract customers.

Then offer everything else you got for money and you are set. For life. You are Disney, for fuck's sake.

Making changes isn’t surprising since the current pricing is losing money.
