If you know someone who has Peacock for example, you just go: hey I don't have it... I'll trade you a different streaming service in exchange. I think Netflix is the only one charging for different households (could be wrong) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just as I typed this I got a survey from DirecTV so it was a perfect opportunity to share what I thought of them and their (lack of) service. I dropped yesterday after 27 years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Turk Posted Sunday at 03:34 PM Share Posted Sunday at 03:34 PM Want to stop these ridiculous price increases? Stop paying for the product. They can only increase prices when people are willing to pay for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This board has long ago had one too many posts of people who love their <insert whatever service du jure here> and are content to pay whatever highway robbery they demand. You literally have gotten what you've paid for. Netflix set the standard by increasing their prices almost 100% in a decade with most of that coming during the pandemic. Then, when they had a slight dip in subscribers post-pandemic, they raised prices again. Then just to pile on, they wanted to charge you for allowing your own family to watch with your login out of town. And for some reason, people played ball instead of cancelling en masse. Then Disney is following the same exact business model, and everyone is surprised about it. The NFL sent up a test balloon with Peacock and we all used the free trial to watch it, but some forgot to cancel so NBC made money. They said "gotcha" and now every streaming service is in on the bait and switch tactic. Watch Walmart+ will have a playoff exclusive game next year and you won't be able to watch preseason without at least Silver status ChickFila rewards app. The pandemic taught companies of all types that people will pay a lot more than they thought for things they really want.
