Initially, live TV streaming services disrupted the cable industry, with companies losing millions of customers. However, these services have steadily increased their prices, often reaching levels comparable to traditional cable bills. For instance, YouTube TV's initial price of $35 has surged to $83, marking a 66% increase in just five years. With Fubo TV recently raising prices alongside its acquisition by Disney, consumers are questioning the value of these subscriptions and whether alternatives or cutting services entirely might be better options.
