If they'd have just increased the price by 2.99 I would have rolled my eyes and paid it.

But trying to navigate me to the Ad Tier so aggressively left a bad taste in my mouth and now I'll be cancelling rather than paying the extra money or sitting through ads.

It's going to suck, these next five years. All the streamers are going to get this aggressive trying to get you on the Ad Tier, the only Tier that matters because that's where the real money is at.
