I want to watch _Get Back_, but the only way to see it is to sign up for Disney+. It's not worth the agony of navigating a subscription.
The US legal environment and lack of consumer protections makes it too difficult to spend money and get what you want in return. It's incredibly hard to avoid getting ripped off by technically-legal-but-predatory schemes.

This is where the Apple ecosystem absolutely earns it's vig with a consumer-friendly, self-service, no-hassle experience. Subscribe for a month for 8 bucks and watch everything you can, then unsubscribe.
- rectang 5y agoReturning to the original topic, would this technique also work for subscriptions to Adobe products purchased through the App Store? I've considered getting Illustrator for my iPad Pro, but have held off because of reticence about subscription terms. (For what it's worth I used to work in graphic design and prepress a while back and learned Illustrator, so it has a familiarity advantage for me over worthy competitors like Affinity Designer.)
