    I don't understand why Amazon is so low on some of these lists.

    It's my favorite mainly because you can get so many other services with it, so the selection is greater and it's easy to cancel them if nothing is good on them.

    I have HBO Max, Netflix and Amazon but I use Amazon to watch stuff like Britbox, Acorn, Paramount Plus, Sundance, Epix and AMC+ most of those are free with Prime.

    I really need to cancel Netflix because I seldom watch it, but I have some anime and other shows I need to watch and finish.

    I think Amazon Prime gives you the best bang for the buck, especially since it's bundled with all the other prime services.

    My rankings would be

    Amazon
    HBO Max




    Netflix

    I am going to get Crunchyroll pretty soon because there is a ton of anime I want to watch.

    currently not, but they offer them free at different times and AMC is only 5.99

    I do need to look at what I am actually paying for currently since school is back in.

    Dam I had been happy with the subscribe button over the break, I cancelled like 5 different streamer's on Amazon.

    Even so, I think those 5 to 10 dollars were well spent on what I was able to watch over the last 2 months.

    Yea. . . I think some things are best like subscribing for 2 months and then unsubscribing

    I did that with POWER on AMC
    Even if I am out of the loop and can see the back episodes of it
    Then unsubscribe

    I would only legit pay for Youtube+ because of how much I hate ads. I even know about the apps or workaround to get it to play in the background.

    Prime is included in everything it offers. You can technically create a new plan to give away or just share the same account if you trust them. You can even get free games to stream if you're bored.

    The others have become filler prone garbage that have lost their luster for me. I think Max is probably the best out of them.

    I'd rather watch things on 1.5-2x on apps that can support it...

    I don't use Hulu too much. But I have it and all of the others you have as well. I'm a sucker for streaming lol. I have IPTV as well.

    1. YouTube TV (record everything and FF through the commercials)
    2. HBO Max
    3. Paramount+
    4. Amazon
    5. Hulu

    I don’t have Netflix anymore as I found that many months went by and I never watched it.
