Threatening Anti-Piracy Messaging Fails to Stimulate Intent to Subscribe * TorrentFreak

A new study reveals how intent to sign up to a streaming platform can be affected by advert & loyalty discounts, and anti-piracy messaging.

The discussion around special offers and pricing are actually why I don’t subscribe to a lot of things.

It always feels like there’s likely going to be a better deal if I just go away and wait and don’t bother right now, which typically means I forget I was even interested.

I’d rather places be honest with pricing than play those variable price games because it always feels like I’m going to get scammed if I don’t just do nothing and see if the price gets better.

If the discount is consistent and predictable e.g. 10% of on Easter/Black Friday/Christmas Holidays it’s at least something.
