Yep. Disney+ (for now).
Netflix, HBO, and Hulu gradually cancelled over the last few years.
What's stupid of them is that if they'd stayed around $8-10/mo each (ad-free), I probably would have stayed subscribed forever. Now they each get nothing.
Biggest blocker I get for doing this is the family plan... There's at least one out two in the household who are watching Netflix to mean we keep it, and I don't want to downgrade as they take away the HD streams... That's my biggest peeve, HD/4K should be standard, not a premium (yes I know, it's more data but we're not in the 90's anymore.
It has pushed a lot of people back to piracy, what did these money grabbing schmucks think would happen
Or if they were willing to continue selling to Netflix instead of trying to pull off their own abusive service, they’d be more likely to get my money
