    I have a free trial of Paramount Plus and and I like it. So if I could get that free for a year I'd take it. Tons of Nickelodeon stuff for kids, and it's got Frasier!

    Other, it has to be horror related or cult films. Arrow video has the complete gamera collection on streaming. I don't do that mainstream netflix nonsense. Well, except for Cobra Kai, lol. Don't do no hulu, amazon prime, cbs, none of it. Give me cult and horror!

    I have most of them minus Hulu and dis+. Watch the shows I don't have elsewhere.

    Service I watch the most is... YouTube Red.

    No commercials plus being able to listen to music with the app in background is worth finding a friend or family to share/trade

    Well, I just subscribed for Paramount+ last night with their 50% off, so that's off the list. I only got it for the 2 Star Trek shows. I already have Amazon Prime for shipping reasons. I guess I'd go for Disney+ for the Marvel garbage where they release a new movie every 2 days. lol. I wouldn't mind watching Wandavision, too, I guess.

    Hulu assuming it's the live TV version

    Otherwise, maybe Starz or Showtime.

    I heard of Arrow, but never knew anyone that had it. That's a good perspective.

    That's great... spinning, fire-breathing, rocket-powered turtles that bleed water. I used to love watching Gamera as a kid. I just watched the following clip (from Arrow in HD, no-less) and am still wondering how it mesmerized me as a kid. Can't stop laughing. :D

    Shudder is the service you’re looking for.

    The question was about services you don't already have. :D

    Probably won't do another, but of those listed would take a look at Peacock or Paramount.

    Subscription fatigue is real. I get Hulu, Espn+, Disney, and Apple Music free though my Verizon plan. HBO Max free through cable plan. Pay for Netflix 4k, Youtube Red/Music, Google Drive, and Nest Aware (I know some of these aren't streaming services... just subscriptions).

    Still can't let go of cable for some reason although I'm out of contact and paying extra for being out of contact. Just nice to have live TV available to turn on I guess. I dunno.

    I went other. Not sure what it would be though. Does Criterion still have a streaming service?

    My brother and sisters share our passwords and have all of those, minus crunchy roll. Also, Xfinity customers get Peacock for free. My brother got Paramount plus for Champions League recently, I found interesting stuff like The State on there.

    This is so true. The little subs just nip at your account and aren't noticeable but as a whole it's a big bill. I also pay for IFTTT pro as well for home automation.
    • Cable (has Netflix bundled but I pay a little more for the 4k/more devices plan)
    • Disney+
    • Pandora
    • Apple Backup
    • iDrive Backup
    • Dropbox
    • HBO Max is 'free' with my ATT wireless plan
    • IFTTT Pro
    • Patreon for some arcade stuff
    • Shudder (Horror streaming service) - free trial for a month
    I'm considering:
    • Increasing my Disney+ to get Hulu
    • Youtube premium to skip commercials (but sharing with the kids will skew my targeted videos)
    I need to put together a spreadsheet.

    Just as bad as we are. :D I forgot to add on Amazon Prime, a VPN, and Apple music (the latter is free with vzw though I don't use it). I'm already cringing at the inevitable app subscription monetization wave that's coming.

    Still, will likely get Paramount+. Holding out hope that Peacock will make the service free through Spectrum as they do with Xfinity and Cox.
