Disney+ have increased the price cause theyre losing customers. That seems like it will work.

They increased the price because they want to push everyone to the ad tiers because those make more money.

Didn’t think of this. No winners but Disney+ then. Seems about standard.

Facebook did the same thing. Users were engaging less because of stupid changes Facebook added, so they added even stupider changes like filling people's feeds with 98% ads. That of course drove away the remaining people so now the content feed is 99.9% advertising and "recommend" crap that nobody asked for or wants.
