Streeeeeeeeemioooooooooo + debris
I would love for there to be a consumer protection law, whenever a price changes for recurring service, the customer must affirmatively and proactively agree to the new price otherwise the service ends.
No surprising people with price increases,
What in the actual flying fuck..
These streaming companies are dreaming. I hope people will just stop streaming. There will be massive street markets for hard drives and thumb drives loaded with pirated content.
So you're in your 40s or 50s, then.
I had no idea they charged 80/mo....now upping that??? looooool. I always thought the new subscription services were between 10 & 15....we've been on the high seas for a long time I guess.
