Kodi with a Real Debrid subscription for me.
Partner has Netflix which we all use (in same house), I have Deezer. We get good usage from both, not cancelling either one
I was going to cancel my Max and Peacock account but my niece was still using it. I pay for Nebula, YouTube, and Spotify but I use them enough to feel that it's worth it.
Canceled everything and now I use smarttube to watch youtube on my tv, soon will pay for vpn to start torrenting again. 👍
The only subscription that I have left is Spotify. I used to have Netflix as well before the explosion of streaming services started, when it made sense because it was convenient to have immediate access to almost all content. Now that every show is in a different service, I decided to go back to torrents with Stremio.
Can you download netflix movies on laptop? We all know the downloaded movies on Netflix will expire after a certain period. At this time, we need powerful netflix downloader to save netflix movies on laptop permanently.
All I have is Spotify and Netflix and Netflix is going after next month. The quality is shit and the suggestions are worse. I don't want to big actors in big budget bad movies on Netflix. Give me decent thrillers, dramas and comedies. I'll go to the movies for blockbusters.
I'm trying to get better about canceling services we don't actively watch and only having two at a time. We already have Prime so I don't count it but we have Max and Hulu right now. We swapped Disney+ for Hulu when What We Do In The Shadows released and my wife is an Our Flag Means Death stan so we will probably permanently have Max (but the new season comes out soon anyways).
We'll be keeping Spotify, and Prime AFAIK hasn't announced anything crazy so that will stay as well. We'll most likely - if we get the "don't share accounts" screen - will subscribe to Disney+ as we enjoy the Star Wars content and regularly watch movies using this together (Marvel, Star Wars and Pixar are our go tos). Netflix may be on the chopping block but my wife enjoys it more than I do so we'll have to see.
We don't subscribe to anything else, partly because the content isn't appealing and partly because - as Canadians - they don't even have it up here anyway!
I stopped subscribing in my own country and started subbing in other countries to take advantage of regional pricing. Now for the cost of less than a month of Crunchyroll in my country, I'm getting a full year. For Netflix, what would normally cost a month in my country, I get about 3 months worth of service.
I'm usually subscribed to at most 2 at a time. Over a year or so I cycle through 4 or 5 of them.
I will not accept ads in my paid subscriptions.
I still have youtube premium, but using turkish price, which is dirt cheap (1eur/mon)
I've only ever subscribed to Bilibili. I think it's still fine so I'll keep my subscription for now.
I'm only on Crunchyroll since other services are through family accounts, I am considering dropping some of my Patreon subs because of belt tightening I might have to do though.
Cancelled everything except YouTube. I could afford them but I just don't like the direction they are going, especially Netflix.
I've cancelled them all and started sailing the high seas since the beginning of the year. I'm considering picking up Crunchyroll, though. It's just easier to pay for One Piece than pirate it.
