This service is going to fail, I'm sure of it. People just want to watch what they are familiar with along with Youtube. Paying for this type of content is kind of weird to me.
 
That’s why they’re releasing new episodes every week. True, they don’t have a lot content, but it’s $4.99, not $11.99. If you’re watching a couple series and enjoying them, is there not $5 worth of value there? $1.25 a week? If not, cancel ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

But that issue resolves itself over time. Two years from now there’s going to be dozens of series with complete seasons in the can, dozens of movies, more content being released all the time. A $50 charge once a year? I think it’s going to do pretty well.

Who's to say Apple won't raise prices in the coming years?

IMHO, it'll be $10/month or $100/year when they get enough content about 2 years...

I don’t know about two years from now, but I assume “free” and $4.99 won’t last forever.

But my point still stands. If you don’t find value for price, simply cancel. Done. Everyone’s happy ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
