    Per year.

    Starz itself increased monthly subscription costs from $8.99 to $9.99 just a few months ago.

    It is interesting that the annual is so much cheaper.

        i think that’s gonna become the norm as prices keep going up and up… hopping from service to service. binge. switch. repeat. maybe a month ‘off’ here and there.

        i’m still on hiatus from paid services here. been nearly a year since my last paid ‘month’ anywhere. tubi, pluto and rokuchannel have been ‘good enough’–i don’t even miss the subs at this point.

        Gross. Why don’t they just watch it on a free streaming website?

      My guess is payment platform fees, when you only need to make 1 payment a year that could save $0.30 x 11 or $3.30 a year in fees (assuming they use stripe).
