Those who ditched cable TV service for streaming TV service, what service did you switch too, and why did you switch?

[llorando]

I ditched Cable TV for DirecTV Stream, part of the reason switching, was the picture quality slowly went down hill (cable provider kept reducing bitrate to make room for faster internet speeds).

For those who don't know, TV streaming services are different then Netflix and Prime as they offer live TV channels and are a replacement for Cable TV.

YouTube TV

Sling TV

Hulu + Live TV

Fubo

DirecTV Stream

Philo

Other

I didn't switch to an online TV channel service, I just ditched cable TV and went without since the 2000s started.
Most of what I watch is free.
Most animes/cartoons are not on paid services as they were made ages ago (1970s-2000) and no longer air.
Sci-fi and fantasy movies I often rent from the public library long after they hit DVD/Blueray.
Youtube has TONS of nature docs, how-to videos, and science videos, but I've never gotten premium because they are all free.
Sometimes I watch something thats commercially available on crunchy roll, disney plus, or netflix, but its rare, I will binge watch whatever few gems they have in a month, cancel it, and not renew for a year or so.

Never watched TV and dumped streaming services many years ago. It is physical media or nothing.

Peacock and Hulu. I am smart though I switch every year though. I wait for Black Friday for them to give out their deals. And if you wait that time, you just pay one small fee like $20 for the whole year. Instead of paying every month. This upcoming BlackFriday I am gonna do Paramount.

YouTube TV is $80 for a year. It's alright though we mainly have it for my dad watching wrestling on USA, TNT and TBS and football. Before that was Spectrum for streaming it was $120 and App only had three streams at once and buffering.
