All I can say is Netflix at 12.99 was a tough sell. That was the rate hike that made me drop them. 15.49 forget it.
When Netflix was the ticket and my sub was 8.99 some years ago, I didn't pirate anything because I didn't need to. I'd have to pay a hundred a month due to the fracturing and inflation of streaming services now, and I still wouldn't get everything. I didn't wanna pirate, but the industry backed me into a corner.
