Hotstar disney+ is still $20 a year here in se Asia. Netflix starts at $5/month ($3 for mobile only). Im super curious if these prices ever hit us. I have a feeling they'd just kill the services if they did.

In India those prices are still "expensive" for the average person. India and SE Asia are a huge cash cow so I doubt they'll increase prices right away since they're still trying to bring more users in, but eventually I'm sure prices go up there too.
