Disney is raising prices on many of its streaming subscriptions, according to a report by Bloomberg.
The ad-free bundle that includes both Disney+ and Hulu is going up by $2 to $22 per month.
The second season of Ahsoka is coming in January, but that's it beyond cartoons.

How
Summarized version
An ad-supported bundle with both services remains unchanged at $13 per month. It's weird to me that Disney+ keeps going up in price.
Headline check
The one thing this headline claims is in the report.
Figures, names and quoted words in the headline, looked for in the report itself — not in the summary above. One claim in this headline could be checked, so this is a narrow pass and not a thorough one. How this is checked
The article, shortened and in plain language
This is the fourth price increase in as many years.
Disney is raising prices on many of its streaming subscriptions, according to a report by Bloomberg. Disney+ is shooting up to $21.50 per month for the ad-free version, which is a 13 percent increase. The ad-free bundle that includes both Disney+ and Hulu is going up by $2 to $22 per month.
Ad-supported plans are also getting hit with the price increase hammer. Disney+ with ads is going up to $12.50 a month, from $12, and the same goes for Hulu with ads. An ad-supported bundle with both services remains unchanged at $13 per month.
The company has yet to announce anything else, though VisionQuest is coming later this year. The second season of Ahsoka is coming in January, but that's it beyond cartoons.
Disney+ seems to be winding down its most popular IPs in favor of theatrical releases, but Hulu is a consistent source of fresh programming.
