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.

    There’s no unjustification for piracy anymore. If you’re gonna charge me this much to use your shitty streaming services that I use once in a blue moon then don’t cry when I instead download an mp4.

      People were complaining about cable costing that much - now a single streaming service does. We have gone from “hmm, maybe it’s easier to just pay Netflix 12 bucks a month” back to “this shit is too expensive, I’m gonna pirate my media”

      Entertainment companies just can’t seem to figure out how to deliver content to us in a convenient and affordable way.
