I remember when it was just Hulu for $5 and Netflix for $8. Saved $50 a month from cable. Now it seems we spend more. I have four. Max, Peacock, Paramount and Hulu. Prime doesn’t count because it sucks balls. (Only paying Netflix when next Stranger Things and Squid Game is released). Curious to see what the average Lemmer/Lemming (what do we call ourselves?) has?

    I have two: YouTube Premium and Disney+

    My reasoning:

    YT Premium comes with my Google One subscription which gives 100GB storage on their cloud and YT Music (which is, in my opinion, better than Spotify - there are better mixes and Spotify doesn’t do great with Japanese songs, which I listen to a lot)

    Disney+ because my gf got me into Marvel and I watch the new series’ (plus Star Wars and classics from my youth like Kim Possible)

    For other content (like the Office), I just use Stremio with Torrentio. Disney+ is still worth it because it’s a pain to set up the HDMI every time and I’m peak lazy

    Not a streaming service, but if you have a partner you should really look into Regal Unlimited / AMC’s variant of that. Movie dates are great and there are always enough new movies to keep you going, plus you can sneak snacks in super easily in a bag (even just a full bag of popcorn lol). You can watch and rewatch like 10 movies in the theater a month if you want lol, plus it gets you out-of-the-house. It’s not for everyone, but worth it for us!!
