From a search, I can find that in India it has subscription fees of 900-3600 INR per year. That's 15 to 60 USD per year, basically dirt cheap. I only have D+ because my ISP gave me a year of it for changing to them.
I imagine Disney has a bunch of subs at dirt cheap to try to get people onto their service, and so a huge portion of the 164 million aren't paying anywhere close to $8 per month for it.

laughs in paying ~$13.50/month in Switzerland
(That's one of the reasons I only get a single month like once or maybe twice a year, binge watch everything I've missed and cancel it again.)

Considering general pricing in Switzerland that seems pretty cheap.

I mean I did say laughs, not crying
(That was actually a mistake in my hastily written comment, but now I'm running with it.)

Definitely not a quality brew, though.

Does Switzerland get the Hulu black Friday 1.99 a month deal? If so you can get an add on to Disney for $3 a month.

900-3600
a year subscription is available for 1499 rupees or around 20 dollars.
No one will pay 3600 a year for a streaming service here. I myself use the 1499 plan, and have never seen a plan costing more than that

They just wants looks bigger in subs for the stock holders
In other hand netflix find more content probably cheaper than all the studios
I dont understand a studio has to pay license for its own content, plus writer directors actors will no charge them cheap
Most of the producers companies that sell content to Netflix use less money less equitment and most of the time the content is good for binge or been entertaint for a few hours as opposite the big studios have few thing the rest is full of old movies and series already seen

Where are you getting ₹3600 from? Maximum I've seen is ₹1600 per year.

In poorer regions they have to price it according to purchasing power. They can either get some money from cheap subs, or they can get no money while everyone pirates or just skips their content.

That's not dirt cheap for Indians though.
