    So I canceled Netflix over Cuties, and prematurely canceling shows. I canceled Hulu for rising prices and ads. I stopped paying Max because of their inability to keep their own shows on their own platform. Now it looks like I’ll be canceling Prime. I don’t order that many things online these days.

    I buy maybe one TV show and three movies a year. Much cheaper than these “services”. Also, no ads, and they aren’t disappearing. They stay right where I left them and I can watch them any time I want. I like reading, maybe I’ll do more of that, or complete my backlog of games I haven’t finished.

    All that being said, my wife started paying for all of the above services because they each “have something” she likes to watch. She also subscribes to Acorn, Peacock, Paramount+, Disney+…I guess she can part ways with her money on this bs. I am done.

      I might just go back to blu-ray at this point. HBO still has my money because they generally seem to give a shit about quality at least.
