😡Got Apple email last night: Thank you for subscribing to Apple TV+. We wanted to let you know about upcoming change to subscription. Apple is raising price of this subscription from $69.00 per year to $99.00. Subscription will automatically renew for $99.00 per year starting December 21 unless you cancel at least day before.

Personally, I’ve been frustrated with the percentage increases of all of the streaming services this year. Not because I can’t afford it, but rather due to the idea of supporting such large increases by blindly renewing.

Thus, I adopted the monthly activation strategy others here have discussed. That is, I canceled all my services and will activate for a month when I see a new season of a series released. After watching the series, I will deactivate the service for a few months, or until the new season is released.

I realize that this means nothing to these companies, but it makes me think I’m doing something.

I was searching the internet to find some way to save on these costs & affirmation, doing the monthly and binging sounds the way to go gif just hope the shows are released completely, otherwise have to wait until they are.

I do this too, but it’s a bit trickier for Apple One subscribers. Not a whole lot of wiggle room when your family is depending on the top-tier iCloud storage.
