    Exactly. I finally cancelled Netflix a few weeks ago. It’s too expensive and there’s very little I want to watch on there any more. The shitty way they were trying to push you into more expensive plans was just the shit icing on the turd pie.

    I’m now looking at Disney+ and Prime Video because there’s hardly anything on those too that I like.

      I ditched Disney+ when they added 50% onto the price. The exit questionnaire was annoying as it had one answer that lumped in “can’t afford it” with “too expensive” which implies it’s a “me” problem when it was definitely a “them” problem.

      I would have ditched Amazon Prime when they added adverts with an optional 50% price hike to remove them but my wife didn’t want to lose the prime delivery.

      The intention is that we subscribe to Disney+ for a few months a year and catch up on what we missed.

      My wife has put on a few different Netflix original shows over the holidays, and they’re all sooo stupid. Their supposed best shows are complete garbage.

      Kids make it complicated for sure, but we managed to drop Disney. Honestly I’d prefer they were on screens less anyway.
