Subscription free services, apps and software

[DPH]

I've said this before, subscriptions are a death by a thousand cuts.
I'm paying over 2k annually for various subscription services. Given inflation, and how nearly every streaming service has increased their price (sony by a lot). I'm looking to cut back. I really don't need carrot, playstation, etc.

YouTube TV is $73 a month. This gives you access to a cable like setup with live content including local channels for many and a cloud DVR. Way too rich for my family but I've heard that many people like it.

I have wonder myself why people just comply with this, and it was kinda this discussion i wanted to have with people that was the purpose of this thread.

I have come to that level that if its not one time payment or free, i dont need it. And so i havent really missed something.

Does not seems like people use torrents anymore, must be of easyness and addction, and you dont really see the total cost. I think that if this increase by increase is happening, people will go back the pirate way.
