I would cancel my subscription just on principle if they started doing that crap. I would be willing to just pay more. But tiered content is trash.

  Why does it matter if there are higher tiers that have more content? Your concern is that you would get less than you currently do for $8/mo or something?

  Is it as objectionable when considered a higher base price, but letting people opt out of content they don't want and be refunded? I don't understand why tiering is bad. You'd have to avoid an awfully lot of businesses to get away from tiered services.

  That's absurd. Back when Netflix was primarily competing with Blockbuster, you would say something like 'Well, if I rent 2 or 3 movies at Blockbuster a month, I'll come out ahead using Netflix'. That's the world that Netflix prices came from. Now Netflix has grown into something so great that it can replace not only your DVD rentals at Blockbuster, but also your Cable subscription, and for a lot of us, the thought of even buying movies. Suddenly they have gobbled up what used to be $100 worth of money going from my pocket to the industry. And people cry foul when Netflix raised their prices $5. Get over it.
