National inflation has no bearing on the cost of subscriptions or every product and service. If it did we’d be paying $5000 today for a Photoshop CD and $20000 for a basic Mac.14.3% increase. Inflation in USA is 1.4%. Someone at Disney needs a new calculator or steadier fingers?
But cable TV is still 200 channels of **** with commercials, so no. Also price of cable also keeps going up too.
It’s what the "+" in the name stands for.14.3% increase. Inflation in USA is 1.4%. Someone at Disney needs a new calculator or steadier fingers?
I can very well see the connection but thanks for implying we’re too clueless to understand. Did you notice that in the entire article apple wasn’t mentioned once? Just because something is competition doesn’t mean it has to be reported on. A Disney + price hike has absolutely nothing to do with apple and quite frankly shouldn’t be reported on here.
Are you so contextually unaware that you need overt mentions of Apple for you to justify the connection? If that's the case, I can't help you. MR is an affiliate partner with a lot of different companies. That has nothing to do with this particular story. But keep pushing that silly deflective narrative.
I'm pretty sure that currently that point doesn't exist. As being someone who doesn't watch TV-MA content and with 2 young kids at home, Disney+ is a breath of fresh air... killer archive as well as great new content being produced and added. Many MANY other people feel the same way. Sure, Disney may increase its price over time and try to get as much as they can for it, but if Econ 101 tells us anything, they can't ever price it higher than what their customers are willing to pay for it. My gut tells me that all those that are balking at the minor price increase are probably not their core customers. So there's that.
Are you so contextually unaware that you need it spelled out for you? The only reason this is an article is because they’re a Disney+ affiliate. There’s even a hyperlink to sign up in the article.
You're simply wrong. Wrong about the reason for the article and the claim about sites that stick to 99% Apple related articles. Point to any site that validates your claim. How about this. You believe what you want and I'll do the same, and we'll both call it a day. That will give you plenty of time to peruse the many many many other articles on MR that are exclusively Apple content instead of wasting your time on content you claim not to like.
National inflation rate is based on average peoples' costs. The average things you as an individual buy might increase in price at a different rate, or even decrease.14.3% increase. Inflation in USA is 1.4%. Someone at Disney needs a new calculator or steadier fingers?
I have that too for 30 bucks for 10 cable channels, locals, and some randoms- I assumed you meant going back to a box with 200 channels of garbage. I got that for the locals and the few regular cable/network shows that I watch.
It's not going to be. Cable TV exists mostly for people who've got no other choice and don't mind paying a ton (e.g. my grandma). And a la carte or not, you're dealing with fixed streams rather than just watching what you want, and the ad breaks are insane in part because they know people can't change channels without missing half the show.
