Streaming service or cable TV? - February 12th 2022, 07:48 PM
Do you use streaming services like Netflix more often, or cable TV? I have both but I definitely stream more.

I prefer streaming, it means no commercials! I got rid of cable TV sometimes last year.

I have the cheaper Hulu plan paid for through my phone service, so I still have commercials when I use it

Cable is way too expensive for my budget, and streaming services don't have commercials. Definitely like those more.

I've always had the ad-free subscription. It's only a few dollars more per month.

If I was paying for it myself I'd consider getting the ad-free, but since T-Mobile is still paying for it for me, I'm glad to take what I can get.

When I moved out, I decided against getting cable. Simply because money wise it didn't make sense. So I bum streaming services off my mom still

I bum Disney+ off my sister I get cable in a probably frowned-upon way by the cable company where my dad brought a cable box from his apartment down to mine. I don't think that's illegal though?

There's a joke in the queer community that we all get together (platonically or otherwise) just so we can share all our streaming accounts with one another, and that's totally a thing for many.

I have a phone + wifi plan that includes cable TV too, and altogether it's a very good deal money-wise, so I use the cable TV since I have it anyway
