The nice thing about streaming that nobody seems to remember is just how hard it was to cancel subscriptions added to a cable service. You had to call the cable company! Wait on hold for an hour! Be embarrassed talking about what you were cancelling! It was... weirdly hard. So, yeah. I mean, I subscribe to a basic Netflix and Amazon Prime account like a modern person. I have a $35/year HDHomeRun DVR subscription, which is cool. Every year, I re-up on Hulu's Black Friday for a few bucks a month. In the end, it's $30/month in 2021 dollars. That's cool. Way more than I can watch. But if I really feel FOMO? Like, I'll subscribe for a month to something else and Just Cancel It. That's it! I don't need to call anyone, I don't need to explain, I just take literally two minutes to just log in and cancel. Things are so much better than things were in the '90s or aughts where it was impossible to do anything without arguing with people you can't even imagine.
