Maybe unpopular opinion: you don't need to pay for 10 distinct services at the same time. Like, there's a show that I want to watch on Crave, I pay for a month and watch it - along with other stuff that might interest me. Then there's something else on Starz - I do the same.
2 concurrent streaming service is good enough for most people, I think, specially considering most streaming services add full seasons at once, instead of weekly episodes. And even in that case, you can just wait a couple months until the whole show is available, and spend 10 bucks for a month's subscription.
- bobthepanda 6y agoIt definitely adds some friction though. At least for me, I would probably just ignore, say, new Disney+ content rather than try and go through a whole setup and cancellation process. It might be annoying. I might forget. There is a reason why "see what subscriptions you're actually using" is a frequent first step in programs to rein in your personal finance.
