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.

Your local library has a copy of every kids Disney movie you could possibly want. No need to pay em for access to something your tax dollars pay for. And if you wanna go below board: just rip em and keep em forever.

What physical media do they have available?

Back when netflix first started, I subscribed to the 4 dvd plan. I'd rip and burn a copy of every movie that came through the house (if we liked it, that is). I was one of the few friends that had a DVD-R drive, and would make copies on request.

I still have an old case logic disk book completely filled with burnt dvds. I just built my first computer that doesn't have a removable-disk drive, and with that, I no longer have any way to play dvds/blu-rays. Not one disc player in the whole house.

You can also stream all of them for free here: https://fmoviesz.to/

Just make sure you have uBlock Origin installed.

Not sure why the top voted comments are always stupid advice like "libraries" or "plex servers."

We've had the solutions to these problems right in front of us for years. All we need to do is realize them.

Use your brain, not your wallet.

Cause they aren’t the random shady website you posted and your tax dollars pay for the library, so you might as well use it!

A fool is born every minute.

your tax dollars pay for the library

Lol, what?
