I don’t get why people keep complaining about streaming subscriptions. The whole appeal of something like Netflix is the unbundling of cable packages and getting rid of annual contracts. I don’t need to subscribe to things I don’t want to watch (unlike a cable bundle where you pay for channels you don’t care about because they’re part of the bundle). Even more importantly, there’s no annual contract. Subscribe to Netflix for a month or two, watch the 4 shows you care about and unsubscribe for the rest of the year. Switch to a different service for the next couple of months. This is amazing - I basically get to watch the best shows available on any service for under $20/mo (this was never possible with cable). No one asked you to keep all of your subscriptions active all of the time. I always subscribe to these services via iOS and so canceling takes exactly 5 seconds (you don’t ever have to call anyone or go hunt down the unsubscribe button hidden deep inside some website ever).
