What I find funny about this is that often the quality of the shit on the service decreases as the price continues to rise.
To see the end state, just check out trying to stream all of the NFL games of an out of market team. It's like $1000 a year to watch mostly beer and truck ads broken up by thirty minutes of "football".
This is my default mindset now. Anytime I see a relevant "new subscription with great value!", I just...don't. Because I already know it won't last, it'll get sold or bought out, and everything good about it stripped out and scrapped.
