Disney+ Drops 1.3 Million Subscribers Amid Price Hike, Streaming Loss Shrinks by $300 Million::Disney+ lost 1.3 million subscribers in the final quarter of 2023 amid a hefty price hike that went into effect last fall
You wouldn’t mind casually paying more for a service that ostensibly costs the same to deliver to you?
I would obviously prefer not to, but if it was delivering a quality product that I liked I might. Prices go up all the time, sometimes I’ll pay, sometimes not, it just depends. With D+ though, I really wasn’t using it for anything in their extensive library, it was really just the new shows coming out. With the quality being as bad as it’s been from the get-go, I was just tired of the Marvel/Star Wars writers treating their audience like they’re idiots. It was frustrating going from one contrived scene to the next with the barest of logic applied to anything, things only happening just to get to the next scene, without any regard for what would actually make sense for the characters. The constant character assassination and cheapening of their franchises.
