I’ve watched all the Mandalorians. How long has it been since a new one released? I do need to check out the Aliens shows. Thanks for reminding me.

Awesome! I’m glad I canceled it after the Kimmel fiasco. They aren’t getting another dime of my money while they enforce censorship at the behest of an overtly political FCC chairman who wants to shut down free speech if he or his boss don’t like the messenger or the message.
Nope, just rotate a premium with no adds service or two a month, binge what you can then swap them, cancel them until next time, etc.
You guys are reporting this all wrong. Here's how you should be thinking about this...
Some of these savings are enough to afford Apple hardware.
Money saved annually by cancelling Disney+:
- Disney+ With Ads - $144, up from $120
- Disney+ Ad-Free - $228, up from $192
- Disney+, Hulu Bundle (Ads) - $156, up from $132
- Disney+, Hulu Bundle (No Ads) - $240
- Disney+, ESPN, Hulu Bundle (Ads) - $240, up from $204
- Disney+(No Ads), Hulu (No Ads), ESPN Select (Ads) - $360, up from $324
- Disney+ (No Ads), Hulu (Ads), ESPN Select (Ads) - $300, up from $264
- Disney+, Hulu, HBO Max Basic (Ads) - $240, up from $204
- Disney+, Hulu, HBO Max Basic (No Ads) - $396, up from $360

I think the ad-free version was $10/month to start, iirc, and I still didn't purchase. I guess they need to cover their massive losses at the box office with more price hikes in Disney+.
The anger that mobilizes a mass of people to cancel their subscriptions because of Kimmel, I need people to have that same energy over price hikes.
Guess I’ll be canceling now that Jimmy is coming back what a joke
It’s NOT free, it’s just being subsidised from your monthly fee 🤦♂️
I dropped Paramount+ with Showtime, HBO and MGM+ and have been buying DVDs. I rarely pay more than $10 for a used or even new Blu-ray or 4K because Shout Factory, Kino Lorber, Criterion, Gruv and Amazon frequently have sales.
Another benefit is that most DVDs come with bonus features, such as making-of docs and deleted scenes, that are unavailable on streaming.
Well he is a comedian so that sounds like a compliment 🤭
I reached it a while ago. Cancelled all my streaming services a while ago. Have bought more DVDs, mostly 4k blu-rays really in the last year than the last ten combined.
It's better. Once you own them, the price never goes up. Hang onto anything that still works that way.
I’m not surprised Disney+ is doing this, as well as others like tv+. They’re trying to force people to annual subscription to make subscribing only for 1 month less attractive.
Apple should promote its movie and TV store as an attractive alternative

That's gotta be some kind of cultural marker that we're ****ed, right?

Disney is a satanic pedo company. Brainwashing your kids with these sick and disgusting movies.
The issue is most new movies are trash, and they you are stuck with a BluRay disc that you won't ever watch again, not to mention the clutter when having hundreds of movies.
That's why I've decided to just download movies nowadays. 😎
Anything I like, I always try to buy outright. Will continue to do so, killed my sub after Kimmel
I got the Hulu D+ bundle last year for like 3.99 a month and it's not even worth that. I am definitely cancelling it. I did enjoy some of the Nat Geo stuff but not for 12 a month. Starz is next, also not worth it.
This is comical.
Ar every hike people keep renewing their subscription and supporting this so the know they can just keep going.

Dang, that's a shame. We have lots of signal here. Right now we have 122 channels. Admittedly, not much of that is interesting to me, but there are some gems in there.
I think they thought we'd be all on about Kimmel, but really the incessant price hikes are motivating enough on their own.
