Competition is good, but Paramount doesn't have enough content to actually compete. I'm honestly shocked that they've kept their service running this long. I'm not going to subscribe to a dozen different platforms, and Paramount is never going to make the cut.
I use a family log-in for paramount w/ Showtime.
I use it almost entirely for showtime. There's definitely some decent things on paramount. But once you've seen them that's it. They don't really have a lot of new content.
And it seems to be an almost genre specific streaming service.
If I'm in the mood for a comedy or something light I don't even bother looking through paramount.
In Australia Paramount+ has the A-League broadcast rights, so I subscribe purely for that. It is very cheap by streaming standards here ($7 for the base tier with ads) and has a pretty good collection of films too. TV series are really where it struggles.
