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.
Well no, im assuming most people subscribing to Disney know what they are getting.
Mostly old stuff with some new series based on their properties. I liked Loki, bit that isnt the point. My point is you as the consumer have the right to tell Disney to fuck right off and if enough people do it, they will compromise and you still wont be happy because that is what compromise feels like. Personally, I still havent seen all of the Marvel movies yet.
Does the service have non-superhero and non-animated-family-movies content? The name “Disney” puts me off, because I an not into superheroes and I don’t have a family so I don’t really watch animated family musicals.
I think I misunderstood your position. Here is mine. Disney wont provide stimulating entertainment for many grown people. ThATS it. Im done talking about it forever.
Yeah, they have a ton of stuff like that. Im not a Disney spokesman even though I sound like one in this thread. I think its a shitty company if im honest. If you are looking for a TV babysitter you could do worse., though

I love how $12/month is somehow “raking customers over the coals”
Well, when the price increases by ~75% and the value does not increase by ~75%, this sentiment isn’t exactly surprising.
Maybe 75% down was never sustainable and they wanted to build a userbase? Try to think buddy
Like about how that… doesn’t actually change anything that was said?
Don’t worry about it, disney bad 😁
Maybe the question should be why the service was only just worth it at 75% down then
Why is that a question dont like it dont buy it
We aren’t. That’s what we said- the value proposition isn’t there
I mean, it is a lot of stuff. If you have seen it all and you ate waiting for Pixar or marvel to crank one out then… wait. Dont re-up for a year.
Right, so anyone adopting such a “buy for a month and binge watch” strategy can still pay ~75% more and not receive a ~75% increase in value.
Nothing is changed.
Oh my god, I didnt even realize where I was. No wonder nobody is on my side. Godspeed, pirates, and thankyou for your service.

Yeah that is actually pretty reasonable.
