Curious how many of these subscriptions replaced another service or if folks are running them in parallel. Opting for Netflix for $15/mo, but you canceled your $120/mo cable plan for example.

We’ve got Netflix, Hulu, Spotify, Xbox Live (I think that’s like $60/yr?), and one of those unlimited car wash places for my wife’s car.

Intuit always pulls this shit. I've been using Quickbooks for 20 years. This year I decided to convert to the online version and it is complete dogshit. I'm in the process now of converting back to the desktop version. My accountant was pissed that I made the switch to online also.

The only two I had were Amazon Prime and Netflix.

I dropped Amazon Prime like a hot potato during the pandemic, since their shipping times sucked and having prime didn't make a difference for a lot of items. Now even though I don't have prime, I'm still getting stuff pretty quickly.

I'm onto your shit Bezos.

My cable in included with my HOA fees so it's "free" however I almost never watch it. If it was not "free" I would certainly not pay for it. All I watch are Netflix, YouTube, Hulu and Prime pretty much. If I didn't have cable might also install an over the air antenna. You can get a bunch of HD channels free over the air.

What can I say? I'm proud of my work. I thought after I replaced all my dock levelers, pads and added electric motors to the overhead doors, you would be proud of how nice and clean my dock is. Ingrate.

Maybe the next person I send my dock pics to will appreciate the care and effort that went in to keeping it clean.

I know I have Netflix, Spotify, and iCloud, Discord Nitro for the cool memes, Linkedin Premium ($31.86 per month!!!)

I'm probably close to $100 a month before I break down the yearly Amazon Prime down

I have:

Pandora @ $3.99/month

iCloud space @ $0.99/month

RoboKiller $ 2.99/month

So, it looks like I'm at $7.97 per month on app subscriptions.

I just dropped $99.99 for a yearly subscription to NFL Game Pass a few weeks ago. It is the only legal option to watch (recorded only) for out-of-market teams, and is a cost of living for a Bills fan in the heart of Jets/Giants country.

No streaming services, since I have a 12-minute attention span for TV and zero attention span for movies. I do have Amazon Prime, but won't count that because I use it 99.8% for the free shipping and occasionally streaming "The Grand Tour."

Amazon also includes free music streaming, but I don't really use it. Verizon Wireless also provides free Apple Music on my phone plan, but anything having to do with Apple and music (or photos for that matter) is an app train wreck with the most illogical UI for somebody over 12 years old who doesn't want to listen to the modern crap that passes for music these days. Get off my lawn, kid...and turn that noise that you call music DOWN!

I'm also not going to count my Amazon AWS monthly bill, which I use to run my personal web posting image server and nightly disaster recovery backups of my home NAS.....

This is semi OT but is anyone else frustrated with YoutubeTV? I first signed up maybe 6 months ago when I ditched my cable since I was paying like $275 a month for cable + internet. It seems like YT keeps raising the price $5 every other month. I also have to pay an additional $10 a month for Redzone.

I'm really not trying to be cheap but it's just annoying they add 1 or 2 channels and raise the price.

I dont have it, but all these subscriptions are sounding like it's going back to the cable tv model. Pay a shit ton of $$ for a shit ton of channels you don't watch.

Just the annoying ads for it on youtube popping up under every single fucking video is enough for me to not sign up for it.

Yup, I would have switched already but any other service I would be paying the same price because I watch a lot of the Bravo network.

$0!

I use Netflix and Disney+ password from the wife, and have no cable or other subscriptions.

I do pay $65 a month for my internet, but I use that for work all day as well as streaming.

The only other service that I have used is Bleacherreport live, but that was included in the season tickets for pro lacrosse.

Look up “docking” on urbandictionary and you’ll see that the typo makes his post even funnier than intended

I'm honestly waiting for the day when a resume comes across my desk for an entry level position, and "maintaining my onlyfans.com site" is listed as one of the skills.

I've already had "running a personal instagram and facebook page" as some of them.
