If media companies want a consistent user base, media companies can politically lobby for their users to receive wages high enough to include disposable income. If media companies won't go to bat for their subscribers, why should their subscribers give them anything more than short shrift? (there's your phrase for the day)

Sorry, best they can do is lobby for year-long contracts only.
