Why are there so many streaming services having promotions and deals lately? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

When I turn on my TV I've noticed that streaming services are offering special deals and promotions and I seem to think that it's due to Easter. Is it because spring is the biggest season for streaming services to have deals or when a holiday arrives such as Easter or Christmas the streaming services market a lot of deals and promotions? Take for example I noticed that Paramount+ is running a deal for $6,99 and it seems to me because Paramount+ is gonna be the top streaming service of 2026. Also I noticed that Frindly TV also has become $10,99 and Howdy is also running a spring special/promotion as well. But what I can't figure out is how MGM+ is always running deals but for some unknown reason they have a limited movie selection and also why MAX is also having big spring promotions/deals as well and why they are surviving I cannot understand?
Something tells me that these deals are Easter deals

In my eyes why so many streaming services are having deals and promotions this spring is because a lot of people are taking advantage of springtime deals and with Easter Sunday you can expect more streaming services raising their prices. And this will continue until Mother's Day and then start on Memorial Day when they announce Summer promotions and deals. But I think the two top streaming services that seem to have a lot of deals are Frindly TV and Howdy because those two streaming services seem to be popular than Netflix and Peacock. But how Youtube TV has Spring/Easter deals i'll never figure out because to me Youtube TV is really not worthy of getting
