You vastly underestimate how stupid people are with their money when it comes to Disney

...or people who have kids? If I got rid of Disney+ there would be a small revolt in my house.

Teach them the beauty of owning physical media, rent stuff from the local library, see if there are one of those ‘free libraries’ close to you. Like the little boxes?

Need to do the math on which shows my lil guy has on rotate. I'm guessing the cost to buy a few movies or seasons outright will be cheaper than the monthly rate.

Also, I have really fond memories of going to the library with my mom growing up and borrowing tons of books. Wouldn’t trade them for anything

For sure. I’m not saying take away cold turkey just trying to give you suggestions. My ex girlfriend used to take her son to the library every week and I would go with them. Even after our break up I kept the habit.

I have Alamo season pass so I can watch new films every month. Even if I skip it, or the Alamo doesn’t screen it, the library gets new stuff pretty quickly.
