Humble Bundle Choice raising prices, 14.99 USD per month or 154.99 USD annual.

That's about a 40% increase in the amount I have been paying for years without fail, partially at the threat of if I cancel, I lose my grandfathered pricing.
And frankly the quality of the bundles has been dropping for a while.
I guess I finally cancel then. What a silly way to lose business
Edit: and cancelled, happy there was a text box for me to tell them why I'm gone. 8 years of paying monthly apparently
- I’m surprised you lasted this long on it I stopped 5+ years ago because of lacklustre offerings. It used to be so awesome :(
  
  There was the odd diamond in the rough, but I agree it has been getting increasingly worse.
  Weirdly enough I was staying subscribed because if I quit I'd lose my current price for good. Makes no difference now
- On mobile, the feedback selection / form doesn’t have a submit button 🙃
- Yup. Though I've been pausing more and more lately. The months where I already own the games because I loved them are ones that I can't blame them for. But there's been plenty that I just wasn't interested in.
- I also cancelled some time ago when I found out the risk of losing my "classic bundle" benefits was nonsense because Humble Bundle had already eliminated those benefits for everyone. Added to this, they charged me for a few bundles even though I had specifically paused because I was not interested in what was offered. From time to time they do offer pretty sweet deals though, but I don't see the point of keeping a subscription there anymore.
- They aren't losing business if it costs them money to have you as a customer
  
  They are losing business, because revenue goes down.
  They will negotiate the prices they pay publishers for a set of keys to use in humble choice to mean they get their 15% cut of the revenue. If a publisher sets the price too high, they'll go elsewhere until they can get their margin.
  If they lose ~25% of their subscribers over a ~40% price hike, they will be right back where they started in terms of profit—which is a place where they would consider hiking the price and losing customers.

I haven't bought a single bundle since IGN took over.
- I must have missed the news when Ziff Davis, now I feel even more justified cancelling my subscription, just got the notice today
- They run good deals on audio books and Pathfinder material every once in a while. Otherwise, yeah, been a while since I saw a game bundle that was worth the money.
  
  Yeah, I've primarily gotten graphic novels/manga/ebook bundles as of late from them. Most game bundles have maybe one interesting game and just isn't worth all the extra cruft.

I forgot this company existed when they got rid of 'pay what you want for the actually good games'
- Yup. I understood when they made the $1 minimum but pay what you what has basically been fraud for years now, ever since they started locking games behind an actual price. It's just a bundle sale, and it's not humble anymore

I never understood why someone would stay subscribed to it. Like just get it when there's something you want from it that month and then cancel.
- Annual prices are slightly cheaper, but they've been gradually squeezing that too. You can of course pause the months you don't want, but it's a somewhat obtuse process.
- The 20% discount on purchases is very nice, though the monthly offerings are extremely hit-or-miss. I’m not sure I’ll stay subscribed at this price, though. The value of the subscription is simply too unpredictable.
  
  The 20% discount is completely theoretical. Very few games, if any, were discountable that low

The only relevant part. I hate when they bury news like this inside a couple of paragraphs of guff.

- I haven't been excited for anything in a bundle for years. Their offerings have been garbage for ages.

I cancelled my subscription as soon as I got the email. Apparently I've been subscribed since January 2017. It used to be worth it back then, but I probably should have canceled after they changed it to choice. I can't remember the last time I played a game from it

Are they still overselling their bundles so they're aren't enough keys to redeem if you purchased it? I see that practice as being fraudulent.
- Yes. They do it with the monthly subscriptions, too.

Oh great, another reason for me to not subscribe. Humble bundle stopped being so humble like a decade ago

The bundles have been pretty lackluster for a while now. Will this increase their quality?
i doubt it, but let's see.

Man, maybe I should just cancel, I've been on this since the first one, back when it was $12, and I've got a 1500+ line document full of games I have for friends to pick birthday presents, and I use the 20% discount a lot, but I don't think I'm getting the full subscription price for ff 14 out of this.

Did they not just do this for the month of June? Or perhaps it has been a staggered rollout and they first increased the prices in Canada.

Unless its quality goes up and it's the best bundle we've seen in years, we should all just cancel and show them that's not ok.

I never saw a reason to buy the choice subscription. I just get the bundles i am interested in, and save money.
