I think one thing to keep in mind, is that a lot of the streaming service news is more American focused. A lot of Americans are struggling to afford things as it is. Obviously there is animosity and frustration about it all especially as streaming services lose value and raise prices at the same time.
Those arguments are exactly what I’m disputing. The prices are lower and value proposition is higher.
It seems like prices are going up because services are coming out a bit at a time and each of them are taking a little while to mature. Cheap initial offerings followed by price increases when they get their shit together.
Imagine if you could go back 15-20 years and flip a switch and have all the streaming services as they exist today all at once. You could tell those same struggling Americans “I can reduce your tv bill 40-60%, increase available content, and you can access that content anytime and anywhere you want commercial free, also unlike cable/satellite you can pick and choose or rotate services to save even more and if your cool with some (still less than cable) ads you can save even more.”
Streaming is a massive value increase over cable/satellite, and a major price cut with options to tailor the price and content to work best for you.
