    The CEO of Disney recently said that they’re actively trying to price people out of the ad-free subscriptions. Once they introduced ads to a paid service, it was game over for the consumers. Kind of reminds me of what happened with cable TV back in the day.

      I’m not sure they’ll be as successful. Media can be pirates from their platforms, so just by making or posting the content they are supplying the pirate market with good quality copies.

      Viewers just aren’t the same type of captive audience that they were with cable many years ago. Price it too high, and and a few years subscribers will drop, but people will still have access to the content

      We’ll see how it goes though. I could be wrong, normies can be pretty weak willed.
