What’s the best combo because we all know one does cover it.

Netflix + Amazon and?
 
Only reason I have Netflix is for my youngest. As soon as she moves out, I'm dropping it. The 'one address per subscription' thing they just came out with pisses me off :shaking:
 
Netflix just dropped me because I was a moocher. I'm not going to pay for it. We picked up paramount+ and it's full of old movies that will keep me occupied for a while. Other than that my wife pays for sling and we watch the races on it. I use free streaming apps like Pluto otherwise.
 
My wife got us on Philo

Honestly is the the closest to having Direct TV with a DVR than anything else I have seen.

It has lots of 'live tv" channels, On Demand stuff, plus you can 'record' and shows you like and have them to watch whenever.
 
Up here in Canada we had Netflix go to the one address bullshit already, we dropped it. Down to just Prime (which we'd have anyway for shipping) and my sister shares her Disney+ with us. We still have cable which has a bunch of On Demand stuff and Tubi has some things too.

I'd be tempted to drop cable, but bundled with our internet it's not bad and there's still stuff you can't get elsewhere on there easily.
 
Netflix because we subscribed to it years ago.
Amazon because it's included with our Prime subscription.
YouTube TV because fuck cable TV prices.
 
I have every service there is.

I am convinced that I will watch more commercials now than I did in 2005 with my DVR. :flipoff:

I thought it was an extra five bucks for multiple locations.

We have a stit ton. we share it with the family. I saved no money when i started screaming "Cable is too expensive"
Disney, Philo, Paramount, Netflix, Tubi, Prime and Motor trend are what i recall paying for. Id drop motor trend but the archives for the prints are invaluable to me.

Im fighting to get rid of the $25 Philo.
 
Hulu, Amazon with discovery + and motor trend add-ons, Netflix and YouTube premium.
 
Peacock for Premiere League, IMSA and Indycar
Amazon for free shipping, steaming is a nice bonus, and I download a shit ton of stuff to consume when I am flying and living out of hotels
Netflix - “free” through my Verizon plan
YouTube - because fuck commercials every 3 mins, and they host the IMOCA coverage, and have MotoGP highlights day of, and use the music channels (it ain’t Spotify it it is adequate for what I use)

Paying for the Isle of Man TT coverage this week
No longer subscribed to Ultra 4 ( was out of country for KOH this year)
 
My wife uses Hulu and Discovery because of shows.

I had Netflix for years upon years(200? to 2018 or so). Dropped it over woke crap.

I had Prime due to shipping. I'm in BFE so shipping was rarely "2 days" so I dropped it since I can get free shipping with over $25. I also dropped it because of woke crap... 2 years ago or so.

I watch Youtube free stuff with adblock. Once they nuke that, I'll drop them too.
 
Roku with:
Pandora plus
Sirius XM (inlcuded in my auto sub)
Motortrend
Sling

Google ChromeCast:
For casting off my laptop.


That gets me 90% of what I want. The stuff I miss is indy/nascar but FS2 on Sling replays the night after so I have them all set to record on the dvr and watch them at my leisure while being able to FF the commercials.
 
YT premium for convenience.
Amazon cause prime.
AppleTV+ in test phase
GamePass cause football

Fuck Netflix. Canceled the day they did the official 180 on „Love is sharing a password.“
It’s full of lots and lots of content and almost all of it is mediocre shows and movies nowadays.

suffers from the poor UI that all the add ons have.

you using trakt?
they dropped the android app last week.
Not yet. I just switched from cinema to Kodi a month ago since cinema is no longer supported. tract is on my list to check out

trakt is mandatory.
once you figure out how the lists work your kodi addon experience will be way better.
you can just get on your phone, look something up, add it to your watchlist and it appears in your addon. Also keeps track of shows your watching and automagically puts new episodes in your lists in the addon.
 
Following, we need to ditch spectrum, keep jacking the rates up for the pleasure of having the same DVR that I had in 2006.

I watch Youtube 99% of the time, my wife watches actual TV.
