Tech's broken promises: Streaming is now just as expensive and confusing as cable. Ubers cost as much as taxis. And the cloud is no longer cheap. (www.businessinsider.com)

I migrated my whole media setup to Stremio earlier this year, it is a fantastic bit of software.

I pay a grand total of about 40/year (for RD and an app I use to stream to on different devices). Theoretically could probably swing it for nothing, but 40 USD is well worth the convenience and improved UI. I know people who pay more than that just for one month of streaming subscriptions.

    Can I ask what app you use? I currently just hook my steam deck with stremio’s linux app to my TV and it’s clunky.

    I have a real-debrid account (that’s 30 usd/year) and I use the infuse app (10 usd/year) to access things I’ve synced onto my Apple TV. ATV isn’t the best way to sync stremio content, but it works with this setup and I don’t need to buy any new hardware.

    I’ve considered setting up a streaming server at some point, but it works for the time being.
