At what point do these companies ring the turnip dry? YouTube Premium almost doubled, Netflix cracked down on passwords and increased pricing, and if you didn't like it you could pay a little less if you would just watch some ads, which we joined Netflix to get away from, people didn't care so those ads are now in Prime Video and other companies are joining in too. Disney+, Hulu, Paramount+, and Peacock all had price increases in the last year. At some point, you have to dust off your peg leg and put on a tricorn hat.
