    what are you talking about? it takes like 5 seconds to cancel a service and 5 seconds to sign up for another one. especially if you already had an account because all your info is already saved.

    do you even use any of these streaming services or are you just making up excuses about how terrible they are?

    i swap streaming services every 3-4 months. it’s ridiculously easy and fast.

      Yes, I did use these streaming services before. That it’s not difficult to do does not make it any less inconvenient. I have not had to think about what streaming service a movie or show is on for a few years now, I can tell you it’s great.

      Also they make it not difficult on purpose, so it’s easier for you to spend your money with them on a whim. Not relevant to the original argument, but also more shitty behaviour from these services.

        dude, what are you talking about. i told you ti takes seconds to cancel and sign up for each service.

        the fact you think a few seconds of time is inconvenient is insane. do you also think shopping online is inconvenient because you have to type in your credit card info?

          What are you talking about? Convenience is relative. Yeah, typing in my credit card is less convenient than having it auto-filled. As I said before, I’m not saying it’s difficult or anything, but it most certainly is less convenient than just not having to switch.
