Netflix Is Increasing Its Monthly Subscription Rate

Oh no not again! I'll be completely honest with you, I've lost track of how many streaming services we're currently using. If all the shows we watched were available in one place, I wouldn't mind so much paying (a little bit) more, but ughhhhh:

Netflix will be immediately raising its monthly subscription rate... again. The standard plan, which allows for two simultaneous streams, now costs $15.49 per month, up from $13.99. The multi-screen option, $20.

This is for sure the most expensive service we subscribe to, but they do have some amazing original programming. On the other hand, competitors such as Disney and Amazon are also pouring billions of dollars into their own, so it'll be interesting to see how much of an increase people are willing to pay when there are other options. Thoughts?

Also, how many services do currently subscribe to?
