This question just came to me while I was buying a subway pass. It’s priced very well, provides a very good service, doesn’t suffer from enshittification, and its price increases very rarely.
What are some other services which people don’t mind subscribing to?

I honestly think there are very few things that make sense as a subscription service. Basically all software that runs on your computer (Adobe, Office, etc) make 0 sense being a subscription. Honestly, most web software could just be made to run on your computer. Things like email, cloud storage, phone service, that have ongoing non-development related costs make sense.
Media is the worst offender. Just let me pay for a download and watch/listen to something.
Cloud storage makes no sense at all. You’re better off creating your own server in your house.
Oh no, your house just burnt down. Now all your data is gone.
