at least for me, means subscribing to more than a few streaming services because of the "exclusives" to each service. It's maddening. I end up signing in for a service and then binging it, cancelling it, and moving on to another in the same way. There are a few that I'd really like to try but they have so much I'm interested in that my process wouldn't work with them. Would go beyond the "free for x" deal. Meanwhile, I'm heading thru Netflix and picking up things I'd blown past earlier and trying them out. Found a few programs I really liked that way.

I have always found Apple+ to have interesting new content, including Ted Lasso and Severance. Hulu is also interesting. LauraInLA May 13 #6
