I literally spend more time browsing streaming services than actually watching anything on them, decided to unsubscribe to tons of shit and use the extra cash for thrifting. This is fun, and I haven't even hooked up my og childhood Genesis, SNES, or N64 to it yet.

It depends on what you like. Things like Friends and many other series are split up across two, three, sometimes A DOZEN streaming services due to licensing and shit. Pokemon is another example, where you need four streaming services to watch the whole series. Other than that, it's subbing to watch one specific show then unsubbing once it's done, like with The Boys.
