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.

I guess you're right. Not all content on the platform is shit, only all content made by Disney is. But I highly doubt a lot of people pay for Disney+ to watch non-Disney content.

Maybe you should read what they offer? Depends where you draw the line on what is "Disney content" (just kids animated films and shows?), but they have all Star Wars and most Marvel content.

Depending where you draw the line, I subscribe for only the non-Disney content. Though I may have to re-evaluate my sub soon...

I definitely include all star wars and marvel content in the shit Disney content category.

Ah okay. I'm glad you're informed on the breadth of content you're calling shit!

Of course I am. I'm arrogant, not ignorant.
