Yeah I'm curious how they get that number. I look at it as my math is Internet ($50)+Hulu Bundle ($21)+Prime($12) is $83/mo
Can they really count internet costs which most people would need even if they weren't streaming?
Great point. I guess there's maybe someone that doesn't need internet in there home. But the average person these days can't function without it.
I was doing it to try to make their claim seem sane. Are people really on 4-5 streaming services?
There definitely are. My partner has Netflix, Prime, Peacock, and the Disney plus bundle. I feel like it isn't that uncommon of a scenario tbh.
