That would not be a problem of subscriptions though.

If they can just keep increasing prices unfairly, then it means something is wrong with free market, not with subscriptions.

I didn't say increasing prices. I said decreasing quality. Price can stay fixed or even go down.

And yes, there's plenty of wrong with the free market, starting with that it's a hypothetical construct that doesn't exist, and even if it did, it's gameable and would have been gamed by the vendors the same way the real market is.
