I'm so tired of the "e" word. Most of the people tossing it around, like the commenter up above, apparently don't even know what it actually means.

Here's a tip: It doesn't refer to something that got more expensive and / or moved services around in existing tiers like MS did with GamePass. You can read Cory's Book or check out the wikipedia page for the actual definition. Go read one of them and then Stop abusing the fucking term!
