Core Viewpoint - The recent news about Tencent Video's VIP subscription price increase has sparked significant discussion on social media, with many users expressing dissatisfaction with the proposed hike from 25 yuan to 38 yuan starting September 3, 2025 [1][3]. Pricing History - Tencent Video has previously adjusted its VIP membership prices multiple times: - In April 2021, the monthly price increased from 15 yuan to 20 yuan, quarterly from 45 yuan to 58 yuan, and annually from 178 yuan to 218 yuan [4]. - In April 2022, the monthly price rose from 20 yuan to 25 yuan, quarterly from 58 yuan to 68 yuan, and annually from 218 yuan to 238 yuan; the Super VIP monthly price increased from 30 yuan to 35 yuan [4]. - In December 2024, while there was no direct price increase, the benefits for new users were reduced, such as limiting the number of devices for login and playback [4].

Market Dynamics - The long video platform market has reached a saturation point in user growth, with major platforms like iQIYI and Tencent Video having over 100 million paid members.

User Sentiment and Expectations - Users have expressed frustration over the rising prices without a corresponding increase in content quality and service. There are concerns about reduced member benefits, such as limitations on device usage and additional fees for popular content [12][13]. - The growing dissatisfaction among users may lead to decreased willingness to pay for subscriptions, pushing some towards seeking pirated content [13]. Conclusion - The pricing adjustments in the long video industry reflect broader market trends and challenges, with companies needing to balance revenue generation with user satisfaction to maintain their subscriber base and competitive edge [11][12].
