Brand-new customers can expect to pay $65/mo for the service from here on out, while existing customers will see the price jump from $50 to $65 on their July bill.

The other family of streaming and TV services to see a price hike today comes from AT&T, whose AT&T TV (a streaming-only product with rates and plans that resemble standard cable contracts) and DirecTV (a standard satellite-TV product) are each seeing their new-customer rates jump.

These price spikes come less than three months after AT&T disclosed a massive 890,000 drop in premium TV service subscribers.

How many hundreds of dollars are consumers supposed to pay each month, now that everybody seems to roll out their own streaming service?
