People were complaining about cable costing that much - now a single streaming service does. We have gone from "hmm, maybe it's easier to just pay Netflix 12 bucks a month" back to "this shit is too expensive, I'm gonna pirate my media"
Entertainment companies just can't seem to figure out how to deliver content to us in a convenient and affordable way.
