Or just don't watch it all. If its not worthy your money, its probably shouldn't be worth your time.

    Part of the issue is that Disney's media group continues to put out high quality content year after year. Plus their services like theme parks remain in high demand after several years of steep price hikes. How do you compete with that?

    Honestly, their recent stuff that's aimed at adults hasn't been great. Most of the Star Wars series, for instance, sucked.

    I mean we vote with our wallets and we don't watch their stuff so it fades to obscurity. Even watching something via piracy just means you will possibly recommend it to others leading to sales of their service. If you want a company to die that is really the only answer.
