I think the issue here is not that they have graduated subscription levels, but that they apparently didn't inform one-year or monthly subscribers beforehand that they might miss out on content. Looking at the website, they're offering an "upgrade" to the 3-year level to people who already subscribe, but I can't tell whether you get a discount for the the 3-year level if you've already paid for a 1-year subscription (which you should!).

Also, it's not like they charge you for the subscription on a monthly basis; if you want the 3-year subscription, you have to pay the entire $66 up front, putting it out of reach for some people who might otherwise be willing to pay what amounts to $1.83 a month.

sa to add that obviously it's fine to charge for the entire amount up front, and people can decide whether they can or are willing to afford that, but it's shitty to spring it on people without any prior warning, giving them no chance to budget for it.
