At this point, I don’t think there is a single streaming service worth the subscription price. What’s more distressing is that, rather than learning their lessons, these companies will collude to scare people into subscribing with repeats of the copyright crackdowns and corporate empowerment of the late 90s and early 2000s.
And like clockwork, I am continuing to not subscribe.
We’re canceling the most watched late night show on all platforms! Pay more now! For less!
Gotta love that great management. Hail capitalism!
Peacock is NBC / Comcast. Colbert was on CBS / Paramount.
In no way is Peacock worth $17/month.
Like clockwork I continue to not be subscribed to peacock, or any other streaming, for this very reason.
Pay X amount per month, for a selection of content you don’t control, have no ownership of, cannot retain a copy of (longterm), and whose price is subject to change at any time.
Ooooorrrrrrr…I could buy physical media, and rip my own permanent copy, which never expires, andwhose cost is a one time purchase.
Why the fuck is physical media dying??? Oh, right. I live in the same country that willingly voted for trump, and are now shocked to learn he’s a shitty person.
In other words, I’m surrounded by morons.

How do you know what to buy? There are all kinds of shows I watch (before knowing anything about them) that aren’t worth buying.
I get my media from the local library and buy the ones I enjoy.
Mate, there are so many free streaming sites out there. Just make sure to have a really good ad blocker turned on. That said, you may have to find a good few that work with your browser, and to find the shows you want.
We’ve cancelled every single subscription service that we had. We’ve been pirating content for over a year now, and get to watch every show, from every streaming service, in HD, the day after they are released. Never turning back. Next eventual step will be to sail the high seas. :)
Can’t wait to keep not paying for Peacock
Arrr, my friend
Peacock = pisspenis
but now you’ll be not paying even more money! capitalism is great
Arrrr mateys, see ye on the high seas…
Fuck those bait-and-switch dastardly. On Vlack Friday, they has their basic premium (🤮) for $50/year and had a monthly option to get the premium plus and remove ads. Then 6 months later, they got rid of that option. And removed the option for monthly at that plus level.
Thanks for the reminder to unsub 👌
I hate peacock in general because they purposely deny the ability to use the service on Linux. So I’m forced to use it on my Apple TV instead of my computer browser.
I only stayed with the cheapest plan in order to watch the WWE PLEs. I will figure out another way to watch. Fuck NBC and Peacock.
Yo ho
streamio plus Real debrid for the win
In my case, Streamio and… Wait, no, just Streamio 😝
