My wife is deaf. So subtitles are a deal breaker for any media implementation I implement.

That is why I pay for open subtitles. I get no ads, continued access after this change and I'm helping maintain a service we use daily.

you know.... most companies include subs in the DVD or file.
For free.
You're paying for a service that should be the universal standard.

True, but some scene members strip the subs from the media, although it's getting rarer these days.

I also use Bazarr to fetch SDH subtitles which include subtitles for background sounds and the names of who is talking.

I agree that ideally subtitles should be included on all, but we don't live in a perfect world.

Does anyone know which scenes are best for subtitles. I hate watching a movie and there is a foreign language and I know there’s supposed to be text on the screen but I get nada. I have to use context clues.
