What subscriptions do you currently have?

This topic made me realize I have a lot:

• PS Plus Premium (got it for $60 a year)
• GamePass (got it for $50 a year)
• Nintendo Online Expansion
• Amazon Prime
• Walmart+
• Disney+
• HBO Max (get it free)
• Apple

How about you, OT?

Hulu

Soylent

The Current radio station

Spotify for music

Netflix for watching

Gamepass for A Plague Tale Requiem and Forza Motorsport 8 (not active yet)

Got PSN Now for a year which turned into Premium last month.

Netflix DVD

And, um, you don't wanna know. But they're not on auto-renew.

I also am subscribed to that stupid 99 cent Apple thing because my mother asked me to pay for it one time months ago and still hasn't added a different card. Apple sucks for not simply having an option for one time payment.

Similar to you, OP, more than I realized:

PS+ Premium

Hulu

Spotify

Amazon Prime

Walmart+

YouTube TV

Ring

Google Fi

Frontier

Geico

Where are the fitness subscriptions, guys? :p

Current:

Netflix

Apple Music

Recently cancelled (last month):

Amazon Prime monthly plan

PS Basic monthly plan

• Netflix
• Amazon Prime
• Disney+
• HBO Max
• Crunchyroll (I'm really surprised TC doesn't have it and I assume he likes watching Anime)
• Game Pass
• Liberty Mutual

too many

it's the nature of things today. why get money from someone once when you can hook them into a monthly service and get them paying over and over.

i heard somewhere that pr1nter manufacturers are toying with the idea and requiring monthly payments for your fucking pr1nter to work*.

shit, i forgot to pay my refrigerator fee this month! all my food is spoiled!

* evidently GS thinks that word, properly spelled, is spam

🤔 I had a free trial so I used it for Shenmue. After the trial ended, I was watching it on Adult Swim. Stopped watching Shenmue though because it got boring lol.

Amazon Prime

• Amazon Prime
• Netflix
• Hulu
• Disney Plus
• PS+ Essentials (a gift)
• Nintendo Online + Expansion (was a gift from a buddy)

Recently Expired

• Gamepass

Game Pass Ultimate, the basic Nintendo Online (forgot to turn off auto-renew 🤦‍♂️), Netflix, Hulu, and I piggyback off my brother's Amazon Prime, Disney+, Paramount+, Apple TV+.

My brother and father both work for the cable company, they get TV and internet for next to nothing, people can use those credentials for other apps like HBO Max, use that a lot too.

* GamePass for Xbox

* Spotify

* Amazon Prime

* Netflix

Yea, that's how I'm getting HBO Max, through cable. Also picked up Walmart + because they added Paramount+ to it at no additional cost.

😮 why did you let GamePass expire?

Crave (Canadian service, HBO + Showtime)

Gamepass

recently cancelled Netflix since I wasn't really using it

Hulu

Disney+

Netflex

I only really watch anything when a my brother comes by most Saturdays. We recently finished Cobra Kai, Stranger Things S4, and are about to start S2 of The Mandalorian.

I haven't touched Hulu in I don't know how long. It's still there, though.

I used to be on everything. Now I am on:

Peacock (included for free with my cable)

HBO (included for free with phone service)

Game Pass Ultimate (pay for this because it's worth it)

PS+ Premium

Game Pass Ultimate

Nintendo Online

Netflix

Hulu (with streaming tv service)

Fubo TV (with tv/sports package)

Disney Plus

Paramount +

HBO Max

Starz

Showtime

MLB.tv

Prime Video (Amazon Prime)

Walmart Plus

Spotify

Roadside Assistance

PowerUp Member (gamestop)

Sams Club

Best Buy Gamers Club Unlocked

various crates, board games, and magazines... I'm sure there are more, and on that note I'm thinking about subscribing to Truebill to cut some of them..

Let's see.. after the mlb season I can cut Fubo and I won't resub to mlb but I think it would be tough to convince the family to drop any of the others. Oh well, you only live once.

Netflix and Amazon prime.

Netflix, Nintendo Online (share it with 7 others, so it's very cheap) and Gamepass. Basically never use Gamepass, but it only costs $1 per month for me for some weird reason, so why the heck not.

@SolidGame_basic: It's a great service. I just don't have time to play all the games I have access to so since Sony and Nintendo are both paid yearly and gamepass was monthly, I decided to let gamepass lapse for a few months until some big games drop on there.

PlayStation Plus($42)

Ultimate Game Pass ($1 for 3 months)

Peacock($10)

FuboTV($70)

Planet Fitness - $10

Yeah, every one wants to servicize their products. It's even starting to leak into keeping the features on your hardware from being shut off such as BMW's pilot subscription for heated seats.

People (and by that, I mean companies) have decided that subscriptions without the cost of having to provide a continual service in exchange for those fees is the way to go.

Adobe suite

Gamepass

HBO max

Surprised no one here has a VPN subscription

@WitIsWisdom: I miss Gamers Club Unlocked. Now I barely buy anything from Best Buy Lol

Netflix and Spotify

Man... I've had that for so long and barely used it I didn't even realize they did away with it... I got a special 5 year deal or something at one point, guess I thought I still had it. We always put all the deals under my wife's info and due to her job she is always switching phones, so I just figured if I tried a couple numbers and couldn't find the account I just wouldn't use the discount... lol. Hell, come to think of it that happens at multiple places.

Then again I have noticed over the past couple years that Walmart often seems to offer games $10 less than many of their competitors so that's kind of a free alternative, although it's not always for every title. Another place people sleep on that often has buy 2 get one free, Buy 2 get a $20 gift card, or buy 1 get a $10 card, and other similar deals is Target.

I guess I can cross that one off my list either way.. just sucks it was already paid for in full.. lol.

Hmmm, too many I reckon:

• Netflix
• Amazon Prime
• Hulu
• HBO Max
• Disney +
• Game Pass
• Spotify
• Paramount +
• Gym

Actually that's not as bad as I thought. Still cheaper than cable TV haha. Need to cancel Paramount though, haven't touched that in weeks.

@mattbbpl: that BMW thing is ridiculous. A heated seat is a product, not a service. BMW isn't coming around like a stewardess with a hot towel, offering it to you. It's in the car already, paid for.

@mrbojangles25: Yeah, it's stupid. I've grown pretty strongly anti subscription in recent years, and the mentality driving these decisions is a big reason why.

Profit growth is supposed to be a force driving improved products/services, not milking a customer base further for the same stuff.

PS+ Extra

Netflix

Disney+

YouTube Premium

Might get Prime again when all episodes of Rings of Power are out

Netflix, Disney+, Crunchyroll, Shonen Jump and Nintendo Online. Both Netflix and Disney+ subscriptions are shared amongst family members though.

Oh, and I forgot to mention Amazon Prime. Can't go wrong with it, honestly. :P

Amazon Prime

Netflix

Disney+

Spotify

Britbox (A UK streaming service)

I'm also a patreon supporter for Digital Foundry, albeit only the basic level. But the video quality is pretty awesome.

Same. Forgot about this one.

Oh, and AAA, too.

Just remembered, I have a GameStop Pro subscription which pays for itself since GameStop gives you $5 coupons every month.

@SolidGame_basic:

PS +

Xbox Live Gold

HBO Max

Hulu/Disney +

Netflix

Crunchyroll

Peacock

Paramount +

Just Netflix I think

0. I sail the seven seas when the mood strikes me.

Amazon Prime

I golf 5 days a week walking so i don't need a fitness subscription.

Nothing will ever beat my subscription to Gamespot. It was the one and only service needed.

Paid for: Netflix, Disney +, Hulu (With commercials lol)

Borrowed/Traded: HBO Max, Crunchyroll, Amazon Prime

Thinking of investing in Hidive since they're monopolizing good animes like Made in the Abyss. Or maybe I'll just use the free trial to binge watch it once it's done.

Youtube Premium - so I can play videos on standby

Thinking of switching back to pandora once I'm done with spotify something about the recommendations are more spot on

Netflix and Amazon prime.

Was on Prime + Disney Plus

But for a while not Disney Plus has just been putting out shit.

Prob re-sub for Tales Of The Jedi and Ahsoka, but that's it/.

Prime, I was getting a discount on dog-food, but that's no longer a deal, so be cancelling that as well.
