    Theres no way you’re watching that much television that you need all the major services at once. I usually have one at a time and if I absolutely need to see something else during that time well yar har matey

      My issue is that I have kids, and my wife and one kid really like one service (Disney), and my other kids like another (Netflix), and I want content on a third (Amazon). So instead of paying for three, we pay for two (Disney+ and Netflix) and I play video games instead.

      What’s even worse is that all three now also have ads if you’re on the bottom tier, which really sucks. I’m thinking of cancelling both and just buying some shows my kids like, it’ll probably be cheaper long term anyway.
