Already cancelled my Disney Plus. I'm paying close to nothing for HBO Max, so I'll keep that around for now, and Netflix is still worth it imo.

It's a shame streaming has gotten so fragmented though.

How is streaming more expensive than cable? Am I obligated to pay disney+ to see something on TV+?

Have you considered going without media altogether?

This doesn't make sense unless you sign up for every service. And at that point, are you an idiot or something? Just cancel subscriptions that you aren't watching a show on.

That said, I'm not defending streaming services. Having so many of the damn things sucks. Just don't pay for all of them.

I pay for Netflix, Disney+, and Prime. We also watch some Tubi with ads, but of course that's free.

That's plenty of TV for me. Definitely cheaper than cable though.
