I subscribe to Netflix, HBO Max, and Youtube premium. I might be cutting Netflix by the end of the year. There are still some things I want to finish watching.

I also have access to my brother’s Hulu and Disney, and my mom’s Prime video. When those three start cracking down on sharing, I definitely would not subscribe to them.

I’ve recently started sailing the seas again. I refuse to even sign up for even a free trial for Peacock or anything else.

I cancelled all of mine and put that money towards the SAG-AFTRA strike by setting up a monthly donation. I’ve honestly haven’t watched the 4 streaming services I’ve been paying for in many months. And when I do, I marathon a show for like 2 days and then forget they exist. Seems like I’m not going to miss out on much.

No because I never had them in the first place. But they make me less willing to subscribe.

I won’t get a new subscription to a streaming site except through the Play Store, since I can cancel any time.

Then again, I also have YouTube Premium because I watch that amount of YouTube and don’t want to see the ads.

I might pick up Hulu + Disney after the next Star Wars show is half-done. Gonna wait for the reviews. The combined deal makes it not as expensive, and waiting means I can get through the shows in a month.

If Disney had been cheaper, I might have picked it up when the show started.

And if the reviews suck, then I’ll just wait until Andor is back on.

In general I will be waiting longer and switching services more often, keeping each service for shorter periods of time.

I haven’t had them in the first place, but were considering a Netflix subscription years ago. Had I purchased a sub, I’d probably kept it until now. On other streaming services… I’d probably have pirated the shows outside Netflix, if I had an urge to watch them.

I’m wary of paying for more than two companies for one single service I seldom use.

Well I just discovered how much I enjoy The Diplomat so I think Netflix is safe for now. I have kids so Disney+ is staying. Paramount+ has me locked in for Star Trek (per their evil plan). I got a Hulu trial to watch Futurama - but that feels like at least one subscription too many so Hulu is likely to get the axe.

I had found a Verizon deal for $75 to get a year of STARZ and it gets you a free year of Netflix. So now I have another year of Netflix without much hassle. We were in our way to cancelling as soon as we finished a few shows but no point now.

We’re keeping Disney+ at the moment since it has a pretty nice selection for kids
