People will complain, but still keep handing over their money.

@Drusas Fair clarification, but whether the service has become shitty is ultimately beside the point. It’s on Disney, Netflix, or whoever to provide a service people think is worth paying for, and it’s on customers to decide when it no longer is.

I also don’t think “I already paid” really changes much here. With most streaming services you’ve paid for a month or, at most, a year of access not permanent ownership or lifetime access. If the service gets worse after that, don’t renew.

It’s not really comparable to something like Plex Pass Lifetime, where you’ve specifically paid once for ongoing access and would have a much stronger argument if those terms were later undermined.
