Disney is raking its customers over the coals with a 75% price hike for their annual subscription (originally $80.) People wonder why piracy is on the rise. Multiple commenters are saying I'm off base about the 75% price increase. My payment less than a year ago was $79.99. Here's the proof.

Double the price and if fewer than half unsubscribe, there is a net gain in revenue.

And a drop in costs too since their system has to support less users.
