No Netflix here and no cable. We do have Amazon Prime.

I was surprised to see Blockbuster on the Netflix schedule. I dressed up as a Blockbuster Video employee/Zombie for Halloween.

I have found that subtitles or closed captioning is very distracting to me. I'm reading the words and not watching the action. Guilt might be a good one to try it though as there aren't a ton of "action" scenes a la Fast and Furious. Oh, and my DH recognized the actress who played Mrs. Hughes in Downton Abbey for those who watched that show. She has a pretty major role in Guilt 2.

We gave up cable about 7 years ago as up here it’s a lot more expense than Netflix & Prime combined.

It's expensive here too but my brother said sometimes you end up with like 3 streaming services to get all your shows and ends up being just as expensive. We don't do Amazon Prime so we don't already have that expense anyway. My brother has cable and a few streaming services but he works for the cable company so doesn't pay full price for cable and internet.

In any case, even just $100 would buy a lot of streaming services per month, especially if you share subscriptions with friends and/or family. For instance, we have Netflix and share it with my uncle who has Amazon Prime, so he uses our Netflix and we use his Prime streaming. This is allowed up to a certain amount of "screens" and we all have our own profiles on each service. He also benefits when we get a cheap promo for hulu, acorntv, showtime, etc. because we share whatever service we get with him. For premium stuff like HBO that never seems to have promos, we get it for only a month or two every 1-2 years and catch up on everything. Or, alternatively, most shows eventually get released to DVD and we can check them out from the library for free and binge watch our favorite series that way. |

That's really nice to be able to watch when you're away from home. Our cable company has an app that lets us watch away from home but there are some channels (like the one my baseball is on) where you have to be on your home internet through them to watch. But last year I was able to watch a movie when we were away, which was nice.
