i do use a couple streaming services, but i don't pay for any of them. i do pay for a vpn usually, but i am currently between such services. i think my partner pays for spotify.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Spotify and MUBI only

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Youtube premium, Netflix and Amazon prime.

Disney Plus. I can share it with my out-of-state parents with no trouble. And it's such a great way to watch The Simpsons constantly in the background.

Since Netflix went bonkers and I had to cancel it, D+ is my go-to app. Hopefully they don't go stupid like Netflix, too.

they sure will. but as they are pretty new in the game we have few sears left.

Wow and here I thought I've spent too much on subscriptions!

  • Plex lifetime pass (through Turkey)
  • Whatever close to 100% cashback VPN provider, currently with PIA
  • Seedbox, paid annually
  • Prime for shipping occasionally, I can find the torrent for the shows elsewhere so rarely use it to watch anything

I don't use Youtube often, so NewPipe on mobile and uBlock Origin on browsers are sufficient so far. XManager for Spotify as well.

May consider paying for Tidal (through Turkey), but don't really see the need at the moment.

Why do people pay for common streaming subscriptions when they can just pirate?

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Netflix, Amazon Prime, and Shudder.

I also pay content creators for a ton of podcasts and stuff like that.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Me: Sling, Disney+, HBO Max
My Wife: Netflix, Spotify, Amazon Prime

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Netflix through T-Mobile, Real-Debrid (plex), and Amazon Prime.

Only thing I actually use though is Real-Debrid. Got Plex truly automated so I just use that for everything including music.

I pay for nordvpn and the electric cost of my server fuck Netflix and Hulu and all that

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

real-debrid, discounted Netflix and Disney+ from one of those third party sellers. Spotify family, paid between 4 people Most recently Prime but just for prime day deals and fast delivery.

Proton Enterprise lol

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

CrunchyRoll because it's cheap and convenient. Pro tip: sign up through a roku for a longer free trial and cheaper sub.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

I've tended not to directly pay for services, but password share with family where we each pay for a service. So I've had Netflix, Hulu, Peacock, and Amazon but only was paying for Netflix (obviously Netflix killed this). I also pay for Spotify, and have the unlimited regal pass (I live a few minutes from our local theater and go pretty often)

So given this, I feel zero remorse for pirating and data hoarding as much media as the internet can give me, as I feel like I'm already paying quite a bit for media.

Amazon prime and Spotify.

Our friend was sharing Netflix with us but once the stuff with the household came around he cancelled his account. Now him and I both have Synology NAS and Plex set up to share all our downloaded stuff with friends and family. Oh yeah and another friend shares Disney+ with us. I also paid for a cheap year of Shudder last October so I still have that. I also got cheap YouTube premium using a vpn.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Crunchyroll, Disney +.

Thinking about trying YouTube premium

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Only Apple Music, and only because it's ever so slightly more convenient for me than not paying for it. Plus, I enjoy discovering new music while I'm out on a long walk.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

amazon but only because I want free shipping and the streaming service was included. if it wasnt I wouldnt miss it

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

I dont exactly pay for a "streaming" service. I do pay for RD and Mega (part of the forum). This has me covered for practically anything I could ever need.

I pay for Netflix, but only the ad-supported tier now. My wife uses it to discover new shows, then I download copies of it for my Plex media library.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

I pay for Netflix and YouTube, both thru Turkish VPN's for payment.

The TRY currency has only gone down since, paying less than $4 per month for 2-screen Netflix, $2.30 for YouTube Premium Family Plan.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

None, I used to pay for Plex Pass but with the last removed I bought the life pass

[-] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Qobuz, Spotify, Apple TV. Some Android apps like MyFitnessPal.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

YouTube TV and Spotify. There’s a workaround for everything else!
