Bogus Analysis Claim of the Week: The Price For a 'Basket' of Top U.S. Streaming Services Has Surpassed Cable TV?

SVOD services

Disney just raised the monthly price of Disney Plus premium in the U.S to $13.99 a month, starting in October -- that's more than double what we paid for the service just three years ago. 

The price of Hulu sans ads just went up from $14.99 to $17.99. NBCU now wants $11.99 a month for ad-free Peacock, and Paramount wants the same for the recently introduced combined Paramount Plus/Showtime tier. For its part, Netflix raised the price of its most popular "standard" tier to $15.49 back in January. And the ad-free version of Warner Bros. Discovery's Max recently went up by a dollar to $15.99 a month.
