Same. My husband and I are closing in on 50 so we have a ton of DVDs from back in the day when that was the way you watched new movies outside of going to the theater. Streaming was cool af when it first came around ngl and we got rid of cable to move to streaming. But, like with anything in this capitalistic hellscape, media companies wanting to extract every $ they can from us, ruined it. Now it's like buying a la carte cable. $30 for this platform, $25 for this other one... it's now more expensive to have all of the streaming platforms than it is to have cable again. I have to sit down and figure out which ones I pay for, which ones my husband pays for, and which my daughter pays for and either cancel them all or keep only the ones we use regularly. I don't think our Disney+ subscription is being used much anymore. My daughter watched all she wanted to watch and now I think I'm just paying for a platform no one watches. I'm so sick of this shit... the people with the most are trying to extract every cent they can from people with the least. In every aspect of our lives.

I canceled last year.
I'm done with streaming. I'm back to physical media.
Go to your library. They have more than books to check out.
