Streaming service prices are rising as companies shift focus from acquiring new customers to profitability, offering ad-supported and premium tiers.
From Apple TV Plus to Peacock, a number of streaming services have recently increased their pricing - and Disney Plus is no exception. Starting on Tuesday, October 21st, the standalone plan with ads will jump from $9.99 to $11.99 a month, while the ad-free Premium tier will increase by $3 to $18.99 a month. The ad-free annual plan is also going up by $30, at which point it will cost $189.99 a year. Ouch.
