It's just cable tv all over again. Pay for 8 services to get a handful of shows you want to watch with the other 90% not being touched , now with ads creeping back in too .

Not me ! But not everyone has a PC that can store tons of movies and shows so they don't have much other choice . There's one streaming service that I think is only in Canada called crave that charges an extra $10 to watch on anything other than your phone it's just the worst .
