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.

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.

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.

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 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.
