I think most every consumer looks at it like they look at every other recurring service: is what I'm getting for my money worth it versus the competitors?

This is me. With the proliferation of subscription services for just about anything software-related, I'm reassess all of my services a few times each year. I regularly unsubscribe/resubscribe to TV services and do the same with Zwift for indoor cycling.

I've had a handful of subscription services that I've canceled when they raise their prices. I stopped subscribing to Strava and Netflix quite a long while ago. I dropped Prime last year. Currently I subscribe to water, gas, electricity, fixed-line internet, cellular, Costco, landscaper, mortgage, and government.

Any software that was once a one-time-buy and which becomes subscription, I simply get stuck on the last version that I actually bought.
