amazon but only because I want free shipping and the streaming service was included. if it wasnt I wouldnt miss it
I pay for Netflix and YouTube, both thru Turkish VPN's for payment.
The TRY currency has only gone down since, paying less than $4 per month for 2-screen Netflix, $2.30 for YouTube Premium Family Plan.
Only Apple Music, and only because it's ever so slightly more convenient for me than not paying for it. Plus, I enjoy discovering new music while I'm out on a long walk.
I pay for nordvpn and the electric cost of my server fuck Netflix and Hulu and all that
Disney Plus. I can share it with my out-of-state parents with no trouble. And it's such a great way to watch The Simpsons constantly in the background.
Since Netflix went bonkers and I had to cancel it, D+ is my go-to app. Hopefully they don't go stupid like Netflix, too.
they sure will. but as they are pretty new in the game we have few sears left.
I've tended not to directly pay for services, but password share with family where we each pay for a service. So I've had Netflix, Hulu, Peacock, and Amazon but only was paying for Netflix (obviously Netflix killed this). I also pay for Spotify, and have the unlimited regal pass (I live a few minutes from our local theater and go pretty often)
So given this, I feel zero remorse for pirating and data hoarding as much media as the internet can give me, as I feel like I'm already paying quite a bit for media.
CrunchyRoll because it's cheap and convenient. Pro tip: sign up through a roku for a longer free trial and cheaper sub.
Proton Enterprise lol
Amazon prime and Spotify.
Our friend was sharing Netflix with us but once the stuff with the household came around he cancelled his account. Now him and I both have Synology NAS and Plex set up to share all our downloaded stuff with friends and family. Oh yeah and another friend shares Disney+ with us. I also paid for a cheap year of Shudder last October so I still have that. I also got cheap YouTube premium using a vpn.
I dont exactly pay for a "streaming" service. I do pay for RD and Mega (part of the forum). This has me covered for practically anything I could ever need.
Netflix, Amazon Prime, and Shudder.
I also pay content creators for a ton of podcasts and stuff like that.
Netflix through T-Mobile, Real-Debrid (plex), and Amazon Prime.
Only thing I actually use though is Real-Debrid. Got Plex truly automated so I just use that for everything including music.
Youtube premium, Netflix and Amazon prime.
Crunchyroll, Disney +.
Thinking about trying YouTube premium
Spotify and MUBI only
I pay for Netflix, but only the ad-supported tier now. My wife uses it to discover new shows, then I download copies of it for my Plex media library.
i do use a couple streaming services, but i don't pay for any of them. i do pay for a vpn usually, but i am currently between such services. i think my partner pays for spotify.
Real Debrid
Me: Sling, Disney+, HBO Max
My Wife: Netflix, Spotify, Amazon Prime
Amazon prime and YouTube Premium Family.
YouTube premium because I watch a lot of YouTube and don't want to deal with ads on platforms that are harder to adblock (Roku, for example) and I use YT music because it comes with it and I don't care enough about music to download it.
Twitch Turbo because I watch a ton of that as well and don't want to fight their ads.
Everything else I surf the high seas for, but I do have a few Usenet and Indexer memberships so the high seas aren't exactly free for me.
Qobuz.
Spotify and Amazon prime, prime is not only for streaming ofcourse
Spotify, only because they still got everything I need and I don‘t want to bother with building my own music library. If they enshittify the service enough, I‘ll ditch that too though.
None, I used to pay for Plex Pass but with the last removed I bought the life pass
Spotify with free Hulu, Prime, Criterion Collection
Spotify. The convenience is unbeatable.
And nothing else. Don't feel like I need to have any other services. They are all "nice to have". I don't really have much time to watch anything these days so paying a fixed amount to watch perhaps one season per month seems wasteful.
