    They lost subscribers and gained subscribers. The net total may have increased but they absolutely lost people from doing that.

      Okay. You could say that if three people left and 8 million could have signed up. It'd be factually true. So?

      The comment I replied to was claiming the price hike is because they lost subs because of the password changes. That implies the loss was big enough to reduce their income to the point they needed more. It's not.

        I agree with you there. There could be negative repercussions involving the subscribers they did lose in the form of bad PR.
