I stuck around with streaming for as long as I could but with the price increases, the restrictions, the lack of content as they revert back into cable bullshit has driven me back to getting the bulk of my stuff via torrents again.
Honestly, I'm pretty shocked that streaming remained decent for as long as it did but we all knew this was inevitable because we all know how this song and dance with greedy corporations go.
The lack of content is really bothering me.
Disney plus is the absolute worst there's nothing on that platform for like 9 months of the year. Then they'll have an interesting program (usually Star wars related) you can binge and then nothing for another 9 months.
Then just subscribe for that month and then cancel. We switch around from all of them; one month netflix, next month HBO, apple the next, etc... Don't understand why people keep the subscriptions when they dont use the service...
I don't keep the subscriptions that's the point.
