This Canadian currently pays for:

  • Premium/4k/ Expensive Netflix
  • Amazon Prime
  • Disney+
  • Paramount+
  • YouTube Premium
  • Crave (going away at Christmas)
  • Curiosity Stream
  • CBC Gem
  • Spotify

The CTV App can fuck itself. I'll be pirating the show and I'm not even ashamed.-

Jeeze, I wasn't even aware that Gem had a paid tier...

[–] Vaggumon@lemm.ee 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

You pay more for streaming then cable used to cost.

[–] WrittenWeird@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Not quite, but it's getting closer.

[–] Vaggumon@lemm.ee 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Wow, Canada must charge a lot more for cable than the US then. When I cut the cord in 2012 I was paying about $60 USD per month. I just got an offer for $70/mo for 2 years. You are paying more then that at least.

[–] nocturne213@lemm.ee 6 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I was paying $120ish for cable in 2014 (not including cable internet, with that it was nearly $200). We would have cut the cord earlier, but without cable our internet went way up and we may as well have had cable too.

[–] Vaggumon@lemm.ee 3 points 11 months ago

Yeah, they tried that here too. Luckily the state stepped in and made it hard for the cable company to monopolize the system like that.
