Remember the days of Netflix in 2011? 8 bucks a month for a bunch of movies and TV shows and we thought we don't need to pirate anymore. That was nice.  Then everyone wanted in and everyone got a streaming service. But then that wasn't enough. Now we need 5 different tiers for every service. Prices go up every 5 minutes. The benefits get worse. Dust off those pirate hats.

You should not need a graph to explain a service like this. It's so fucking stupid. All these companies wonder why people are subbing less and canceling more but keep doing this fucking bullshit.

I'm still subbed to Netflix, Amazon Prime and Disney+ It's still far more convenient and easier for me than pirating.

I remember when they did the password crackdown, a bunch of people said they'd stop subbing and...Netflix subs increased 😂 I don't think Netflix subs have decreased for a couple years now, their price increases are a bit of a piss-take because they're one of the few profitable services but for all of people's angry complaints, they aren't actually un-subbing in large enough numbers for the companies to care, often people will angrily complain online but then these companies will be like "subs increased this quarter!" Lol.

Amazon Prime, Disney+, Netflix, WB Discovery and Apple TV will likely be fine because they're simply too big to fail. What people will do is just swap subs (which they should be doing anyway), unsubscribe and re-subscribe when needed, constantly cycle out the subscriptions they have, heck I should be doing that, but I'm too lazy, Lol.

I canceled everything. I find free shit easier. My friend let's me watch his backups of his blu ray rips. I do have blu rays and DVDs I bought. I want to support stuff but with everything so fragmented and prices go up every 10 seconds with 30 different tiers. I'm done. I do have prime but I don't sub to prime for TV. Navigating that app is like navigating those Walmart DVD bargain bins when they had those. Of course everything has become shittier to navigate.  Can't just seperated by just genre anymore. What's hot.  Your friend watched so here. Originals.  Because you scratched your nose here is another list. Like finding a needle in a haystack to find the genre sometimes.
