Subscription service fatigue

I'm getting tired of it. Nexflix, Hulu, HBO, Movie Pass, razors, underwear, now ESPN+ which is add on even if you're a subscriber. Disney pulling their stuff off Netflix so they can have their own subscription service. It never ends.

You could not watch TV

ESPN is the biggest bitch of them all.

Of those, I only really make use of Netflix and HBO
It's not like you can't buy razors/underwear in the traditional manner, go to the movies normally or skip Hulu in favor of watching network shows when they air.

Also frustrating having to remember all those logins and passwords. That's why I just use 'guest'.

I was just talking last night of the over-saturation of content on these streaming sites. I scrolled through Netflix and Hulu last night trying to find something that caught my attention. After 10-15 minutes I said frick it and watched Game of Thrones.

I know, i just think the culture of the subscription service is getting out of control

If only there was something that combined them all into one plan for a set price......
like cable or satellite tv.

Yeah it's pretty annoying. I hate the paywalls around so many news sites as well. I'd love a Netflix or some sort of aggregator for those sites.
I think we are going to continue to be nickel and dimed by the media we choose to consume. I've cancelled everything but my Netflix and I'm considering cancelling that. If it gets too diffused people will just go back to illegal streaming and downloading.

People complained for years to have a pay per channel type setup. Now this is pretty much it. I wish that companies would try to work together more; i.e. put it on Netflix because they have the absolute best interface and streaming technology (Doesn't buffer). But I am glad that the $100 a month for 99 channels that I hate is going out the window.

READ A BOOK you miscreants!
No, but, seriously, can a person who hates TV commercials escape all of these commercials by being a subscriber to some of these services? Thanks.

Yeah. That is one way it is better.

it's really not. Content is becoming more and more diluted across these platforms. ESPN+ at $5 is highway robbery for what they are putting on that service considering what they charge the cable companies for their main networks.

I never got fresh underwear when I had DirecTV or Dish Network. Charlie ain't sending nobody razors or cigar bundles each month either.
Idiot.

Get Kodi for free and add a $10 monthly subscription to an IPTV provider to it. With that you will be able to cancel out 6 of the things you listed.
