mine went from 17 AUD to 33 AUD.

what a bunch of greedy assholes.

I was paying for it for years. But now I'll go out of my way to not pay for it. No doubt a lot of people will too.

TF? (aka fuck'em) That seems like the USD price is probably going to rise too then. USD 9.99 right now for me and that's AUD 15.41.

AUD 33 would be more than doubling it for me, just like Disney more than doubled my barely used subscription (I instantly cancelled that).

One Piece is going to have real live action now methinks.

Not certain what is up with yours, but mine has been increased to $17 from $15 AU.

*Ah, the Family plan.

$18 > $32. An absurd increase especially given the single plan was just $2.
