With the rising prices of Netflix and Disney+, are you considering cutting those subscriptions? (discuss.tchncs.de)

I was never a fan of the subscriptions model (I have never had a Spotify, Netflix, or any other similar services).

My girlfriend that used to make fun of me is now considering cutting some of those costs.

What is your stance on this?

I might pick up Hulu + Disney after the next Star Wars show is half-done. Gonna wait for the reviews. The combined deal makes it not as expensive, and waiting means I can get through the shows in a month.

If Disney had been cheaper, I might have picked it up when the show started.

And if the reviews suck, then I’ll just wait until Andor is back on.

In general I will be waiting longer and switching services more often, keeping each service for shorter periods of time.
