Disney Plus (with ads) $2.14 add-on per month to Student Hulu plan
$2.14
$7.99
I was recently charged 149.79 for the annual Disney plus service with out ads. When I called customer service to cancel it based on the price increase, I was told I could add the Disney Plus basic to my already established Hulu Student account.
I assume you have to have the student account to get this to work. But if you do go into your account settings, there you will find a billings page with optional add-ons to your plan. Once you click that you will see an option to add Disney plus with ads to your Hulu account. NOTE: this can only be done thru your Hulu.com profile account and on Google chrome, not via the app or Disney website.
Total I am now being billed monthly is 4.27 for both streaming services vs the $9.99 monthly bundle price for the same services.

Go woke, go broke. Or something like that? 🤷
Some of that criticism (maybe most) is due to humans wanting to attribute bad things to the things they don't like, i.e. politics typically. "Your guy" is in power? Economy is terrible! "My guy is in power?" Economy is great!
I have no idea the point you are trying and failing to make. However I do know that things cost a lot more now, mainly staples like, you know, food and clothes and electricity and so paying for premium steaming is discretionary and at $140 a year for Disney + is a lot given it was around $70 the last time I bought it. Therefore the $2 add on, even if I have to deal with ads, is a pretty good deal. $36 or so a year for some on demand exclusive content seems like a good entertainment value compared to $140 for just Disney.
I think you may be conflating prices rising (they are actually falling now) with the particular issues going on in the streaming media sector. (see below also, for updated info on inlation)
Streaming companies are generally stopping the subsidizing they did for the past several years just to get subscribers. They are no longer focused on "number of subscribers" (even if it meant losing money for them), and have pivoted hard to a profitability model, which is going to feel very anti-consumer to us on the other side of those changing policies (especially after the salad days/years we have just been through).
Inflation in the US:
It's dropped from around 7-8% last year, to less than half that currently.

"The annual inflation rate in the US slowed to 3.2% in October 2023 from 3.7% in both September and August, and below market forecasts of 3.3%. Energy costs dropped 4.5% (vs -0.5% in September), with gasoline declining 5.3%, utility (piped) gas service falling 15.8% and fuel oil sinking 21.4%."
