    My family will rotate Steaming services. We sub for a month or two when we wanna see a show or something, then cancel in favor of something else.

      yeah, this is the way. i got lectured yesterday buy some weirdo about how doing that is ‘too inconvenient and a massive waste of time’. and then doubled down when I pointed out it takes seconds to do this, and were like ‘it shouldn’t have to take me seconds’. OK buddy… like i guess if you feel you must be subbed to 8 different services at once and forever because you can’t ever cancel or swap, it must be really tough to be you.

        yup, which is why the money boys are desperate to make bundles. annual contracts with cancellation fees are in the future. line must go up!
