Comment on Netflix may hike prices after success of password-sharing crackdown

How has HBO been consistently $15 a month for decades it seems, and now suddenly this model requires everyone to hike their prices to hell and back? I think I would be willing to believe that $15/mo is the magic number, except that everyone is rocketing past that now. Now it’s just garbage corporations turning a quick buck for executives and shareholders, as subscribers we aren’t getting any more for our money - there’s no feature release or massive influx of content. What a shit system we have.

You answered your own question “Now it’s just garbage corporations turning a quick buck for executives and shareholders” executives must continually find more profit to appease the shareholders, the only way to do that consistently is raise prices, there are too many people that will just keep paying and paying and the corporations know it.
