I have discontinued many subscription based services due to all the price hiking and/or changing features I originally paid for.
Reading headlines like this always reassures me I’ve made the right choice. I used to pay for Amazon Prime (and the other sub channels that had content I enjoyed), Netflix, Spotify, Crave+Sportsnet. All of it replaced by YouTube Premium which I do get most of my money out of with its features including ad free music.
It’s been a couple years since I closed all my premium subscriptions and every so often I’ll get an email asking me to rejoin for 5.99 for 3 months and regular pricing thereafter (or similar price points), which only tells me the price hiking isn’t at all vital, it’s having your credit card information. It’s simple greed.
