I pay for YouTube; my kids and I almost exclusively watch content through that service.

Netflix sees the most usage here.

Amazon Prime is second place, and we have a Prime membership anyway.

Our main is Hulu because we also want live TV. And Hulu gets you acces to Disney, lots of built in sports and available add on sports packages, as well as direct lines into premiums through Hulu.

Basically if you want live you're looking at Hulu or Sling. Probably the right answer is to cycle back and forth between them and keep leverging your loyalty for better deals.

Same. We use Prime, which gives access to freevee, tubi etc. 

We went Roku and that gives access to Freevee, Tubi, and the Roku channel itself at no charge.

Ahoy, Mateys.

"None of them" is the correct answer.  

Kodi+SABnbzd+Radarr (TV)+Sonarr (Movies).

Run it on a used Synology NAS with a few TB of storage.  

Live sports?  OTA or Streameast.

Can BitTorrent count as a streaming service? cheeky 🏴‍☠️

Max, in great  part because with their addition of BR Sports I get TNT MotoGP coverage without screwing around with torrents.

But also because they have a lot of travel/cooking stuff I like.

I agree with Ian about YouTube Premium. I watch more YouTube than anything, and I'm never going back to ads if i can help it. It's the only thing that stays constant after finishing whatever serieses on any given platform.

So as you can see, everybody has a different answer and recommends something different.  Enjoy! laugh

I pay for Youtube TV and Netflix, have Prime Video because of Amazon Prime, and have HBO Max (or whatever they call it now) free through my T-Mobile account. Those cover about 90% of what we watch at home. 

I will pay for the occasional month of Apple TV to binge a series with my wife, and have considered swapping Youtube TV for Hulu because of some of the series that interest me and the wife. 

In short, it seems best to hop between services for whatever you fancy at the time. Subscribing and canceling is easy enough now that it's of little to no consequence.
