That might be their response, yes. But they also have some other options:
improve the service to be worth the cost
reduce the cost to increase Premium subs - I have a price in mind, and they’re way above it
add an a la carte alternative to Premium (i.e. pay per video or something)
cut expenses, such as by reducing the amount of useless videos that are uploaded (i.e. small charge to upload videos, recur every year; allow some amount for free)
But no, raising prices is the easier “solution.” I’m willing to pay (I pay for Nebula, after all), I’m just not willing to pay what they’re asking for the service as-is.
