    I think the price hikes are basically relying on or incorporating this practice into their pricing models.

    I do wonder though if we’ll see changes made to the cancellation policies. I’ve certainly been expecting a change there for years.

      What kind of changes to the cancellation policies are you imagining?

        That you can’t cancel each month? Like a six or twelve month minimum?

          That’s not a change in cancellation policy; that’s a change in package pricing and availability.

        Well, rather the subscriptions. IE, no monthly subscriptions but 6-monthly or 12-monthly. Or cancellation fees.

        No idea if my expectation is valid, but it intuitively seems to me like an obvious way to grab some cash.
