And what is the price? I think it's like $16 CAD a month or so? So the price of a movie ticket and not even enough for a small popcorn. I find it a bit overreacting that people act like that's way too expensive for what you get out of it. Used to be that I'd spend way more than that for a TV show season on DVD that I'd finish in a week.

I'm not saying this is a good move. But the folks vowing to only ever pirate because a month of content costs about as much as my local hourly min wage seems a bit much.
