Hi all!
I've been wondering what kind of streaming services you use (if any). Netflix, HBO, Hulu? What are your views on them? I have Netflix, but it's annoying for me that many titles are not available there. If I wanted to access different films or TV series, I'd have to subscribe to all services, basically.

I have access to Netflix, Hulu with ads, Disney+, Prime Video, and Paramount. I like the originals on Netflix and Hulu and can find most shows I enjoy on at least one platform. I don’t pay for all of them myself though and if I did I’d probably just have Netflix and Hulu.

I have access to most of the major streaming services: Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, Max, Prime Video, Paramount, Starz, and Peacock. I don't personally pay for most of the services, but my friends have been kind enough to grant me access to their accounts. If I didn't have that, I would probably only have Hulu, Disney+, and my Prime/Paramount combo subscription. It's definitely easy to get caught in the trap of signing up for allllll the services, just to have access to the content that you want to watch.

I have access to Hulu, HBO Max, and Paramount+. I am thinking about getting rid of HBO Max and Paramount+ because the price they charge for their platform services is not worth the one should I watch on each of them. There is a wider range of available shows, movies, and documentaries available on Hulu, and I believe the price they charge is worth it.

I don't use any subscription streaming services. But I have recently found out that Amazon do a free service 'Freevee' which seems interesting. I am tempted by Disney+ though since I love Disney, but at the moment, can't justify paying a subscription fee.
