I renewed NEOn a year ago for $199 / year. Since then,  I've barely used it.  I just got an email saying I would be renewed at $239/annum. 

 

I canceled my sub. 

 

Theservice itself is good if there's something you want to watch.  I was watching "The Last of us" but the most recent season lost me when characters started doing really stupid things,  so I bailed. 

 

 

 

I had 7 streaming services that were going to cost me almost $2000 this year. Crazy money. I've capped it at $500, but basically I'm down to Netflix ($8.99 a month via Spark) and Apple TV ($17.99 a month) and YouTube Premium ($22.99 a month).  the vast majority of our streaming is via YouTube. 

 

 

 

Where do others see these streaming services and NEON?

That's brave of them jacking the price up when they're about to lose all the HBO content in 4–5 months' time!

Not a 'new' price rise.

You just got in last year before the price rise.
