This is way too absolute a point. There's services like water and internet service you're effectively subscribed too that don't get worse. There's obvious efficiencies that can be gained from regularizing demand with subscriptions. Amazon Prime is another example of a something I've been subscribed to for over a decade and I don't feel has gotten worse.

The article isn't extolling the virtue of paying for a utility!
Subscriptions are giving the seller permission to dip into my bank account every month whether I used the product or not.
At least when I pay monthly rent my stuff (and usually me) are actually in the unit the whole time.
