| Post subject: What streaming services do you have? |  |
|
I have Foxtel Cable and Netflix, that's it, but there seems to be a heap of different streaming services now, many with exclusive content.
Off the top of my head there's Amazon Prime, Stan, Kayo, Foxtel streaming, Disney and probably lots I don't know.
So which ones do you do and why?

We have Disney+ originally because I wanted to watch The Mandalorian.
Last night we watched Jungle Cruise (starring the Rock & Emily Blunt) on Disney.
Use the 24 year olds Amazon Prime subscription occasionally and another family members Netflix.
Foxtel Go on the iPad using my sisters subscription (can use up to 5 devices & the iPad counts as one).

Foxtel through Nans subscription
Kayo I keep all year round as it's so cheap at $5 a month
The others I bounce between them depending on what I want to watch. Got Prime and Disney+ atm. |

I have Foxtel with Netflix and use TPB to get the shows that these two don't air.
It is getting ridiculous, you now have to pay hundreds of $$$ a month to be able to watch everything, screw that.

Currently I have Netflix,Amazon Prime,Appletv +,Binge and Disney+( currently available for $2 per month)What can I say, I like my scripted dramas and comedies.😀
Let’s be honest,the free to air networks,especially the commercial ones,have virtually given up on making scripted dramas.If you like dramas,the streaming sites are the only places to go to these days,

Yep I have the same as you except instead of Appletv+, I have Stan and Stan +. I only watch the news and the occasional sport on free to air, all the rest on pay tv.

I thought it was that, I didn't know TPB was still working let alone as a streaming service.

My partner occasionally signs up for monthly free trials before cancelling. We had Stan a few months back, and currently have Disney+ for another couple of weeks. You can occasionally find good things on there, but I’m honestly pretty sceptical about their value – I get most of the mainstream stuff I want to watch on DVD from the local library and torrent whatever’s unavailable (which, given my film tastes, is a lot!).

Another newish one is Paramount +
I heard/read somewhere about it as it's resurrecting Dexter.

Anyone tried it?
