Everyone wants to run a subscription service, until they have everyone on a subscription. Then instead of celebrating that they won capitalism, they go and start with the exclusive extra addons and upgrades. Because unfortunately no company in the history of companies has ever said that's it, we're making enough money, let's relax.

actually, plenty of companies say exactly that.

The thing is, they're small privately owned companies. not giant corporations.
