I remember when it was just Hulu for $5 and Netflix for $8. Saved $50 a month from cable. Now it seems we spend more. I have four. Max, Peacock, Paramount and Hulu. Prime doesn’t count because it sucks balls. (Only paying Netflix when next Stranger Things and Squid Game is released). Curious to see what the average Lemmer/Lemming (what do we call ourselves?) has?

Real Debrid with Stremio and Kodi only.

For video content? Just YouTube. The rest doesn't really interest me, I have access to a Netflix account but I haven't used in in years, to the point where I'll have to ask my mum what the password is again if I have a reason to use it

[–] scarrtt@lemm.ee 1 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

None. I use Premiumize with Plex for fast downloads and a Netflix style interface once I have the content. And IPTV if I want to watch movie channels

Between me and my husband we have: Apple TV+, Disney+, Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, YouTube Premium.

Used to have Optus Sports as well but funnily enough my account didn’t auto renew when it was supposed to. I got transferred 3 times trying to renew my account and still couldn’t get anyone who can charge my card. They don’t seem to want my money so I just stopped.

Prime Video (since it’s included with a prime membership), Spotify family (all spots filled), and kindle (if you consider it a “streaming” subscription).

[–] honeyontoast@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

Netflix and Disney+ are the only two left. I used to also have Amazon Prime and Spotify but I was able to cut out Prime early last year and just within the last few weeks I cut out Spotify after using it continuously since 2009.

I'm trying to de-stream my media, and I would very much like to own the actual files legitimately instead but I think everything is so reliant on streaming these days it can be really difficult to buy DRM-free movies or TV shows. For music I get it from Bandcamp, so I am very appreciative of that. What can't be acquired legitimately.. cough

I only personally pay for Prime Video and Spotify. But I have access to Netflix, Hulu, Paramount+, HBO, and a handful of others.

And whatever I don’t have access to, I have a Plex server running Servarr/Radarr, which automatically syncs downloaded content from Plex’s watchlist. So I can just add something to my watchlist, and it’s available on Plex in the next 20-60 minutes (depending on that particular torrent’s speeds.)

I occasionally hop on someone else's Netflix in my room. She said it was fine. But I only went to watch Leave the World Behind and Rebel Moon because both of those had a lot of praise. After that there's nothing on Netflix I'm interested in.

I have Prime, but I bought years ago without even considering video content as part of it. Plus now it gives me perks for games I play where I otherwise wouldn't spend any money. Honestly I'll probably be keeping prime just for the website and game side alone. The video service was just a bonus.

I had Apple TV after doing a one month trial but other than Invasion and Foundation there's nothing else interested on there. I finished both of those within the month and let it expire.

I only still have HBO because my daughter likes watching South Park.

Not interested at all in Disney/Hulu.

I cancelled Paramount.

So right now I have HBO and Prime. One for my kids and the other for non-streaming reasons.

Prime because I work in a remote area and buy a lot of Amazon, and HBO Max because one day my cell phone carrier decided to give it to me for no extra charge on my plan.

I use Jellyfin and torrents for the rest.

Hulu, Spotify, paramount+, peacock, Netflix, hbomax, disney+, prime, for media that's all I think. Many more subscriptions in all though, for cloud storage and compute, various apps, minecraft servers and realms, honestly I need to take stock of it all

SO and I keep the Disney/Hulu bundle because one of my credit cards covers the cost. Everything else we cancelled and I built a little Jellyfin server.

One. Not so much of a "service" rather than a "technology" or "protocol" ;)

[–] yessikg@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 10 months ago

If you count Sling TV, 3, otherwise 2

[–] z3rOR0ne@lemmy.ml 0 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

None. NewPipe/Sponsorblock for phone, for Desktop, yt-dlp with Sponsorblock with rss feed for subs, mullvad vpn for high seas sort of shit.

[–] Gigan@lemmy.world 0 points 10 months ago

The only subscription I pay for is xbox live. But I have access to Netflix, Hulu, HBO, and Disney+ because family members let me use their accounts.

[–] Pratai@lemmy.world -1 points 10 months ago (6 children)

Netflix, Hulu, Peacock, Amazon, HBO, Apple TV…. So I guess all of them!?
