Disney Raises Prices for Streaming Services by as Much as 27%::Walt Disney Co.
is raising the prices of its streaming services, including a 27% increase for
the advertising-free version of the flagship Disney+.
TLDR:
Current ad free plans for Disney+ and Hulu are now raising $3 more on October 12. Both becoming $13.99 and $17.99.
Disney is the one I’ll shed in a heartbeat. Nothing ever seems to get added. People shit on Netflix, but at least I can go their for comfort food like Jaws or The Truman Show.
My secret hope, unrelated to streaming services, is that people start releasing some sort of analogue tape format like VHS or Betamax, or even one of those, paired with a high quality digital download for movies.
I envision it working similar to the vinyl resurgence. A digital download for modern devices and streaming, paired with a fundamentally different form of media for a different experience.
Of course I know that it won’t happen. I just like analogue tech.
Profits are down. Cough up, plebs!

I remember when you only had to pay once to add a video to your collection…

The worst thing is I’ve got most of these from the DVD era, but I’m just too lazy to get up and put them in.
