How many of those 15 million are people who forgot to turn off auto-renew on their free trial?
- kstrauser 10y agoMaybe 3. Who doesn't notice $10 a month on their card? People with little spare money would feel it, and people with lots of spare money usually get that way by paying attention to their finances.
- ben_jones 10y agoYou're right, consumers who buy the newest iPhone each year are real penny pinchers. \s
- Throwaway23412 10y agoApple Music has been out for a year today. After the initial three-month free trial, I would think that most people would notice $10 missing from their bank accounts every month.
- Tiksi 10y agoI once paid $80/mo for a year for a server I forgot I had. It happens.
- dawnerd 10y agoOr at a certain point 10 dollars is nothing and the time alone to figure out apples weird settings isn't even worth it. I still pay for a few things that I never use but just don't feel like figuring out how to cancel.
- mdrzn 10y agoI'd be happy to unsubscribe you from those services, in exchange for 50% of what I'll save you monthly.
- markcerqueira 10y agoI think "most people" is giving "most people" too much credit!
- 1123581321 10y agoMark, that's a legitimate question, but shouldn't you also ask how many Spotify customers forgot to turn off auto-renew? After all, they are also quickly acquiring customers. In my opinion, a lot of users of streaming media services are neither enthusiastic customers nor entirely forgetful. Their opinions of the services they pay for aren't consistent from day to day, either.
