Too many streaming apps?

[Shortie]

Do you feel there are too many streaming apps to choose from? It seems like every major TV station now has it's own app. There's the big ones like Hulu, Netflix, HBO Max, Amazon Prime Video, but now it seems like more and more places are popping up such as Peacock and the like. Do you think there are too many streaming services out there?

You'd deal with the same thing if you had Cable or Dish. You'd just be paying more through those networks for channels like HBO which would raise your bill through the roof. At least it's less costly and more manageable with streaming. You can choose how many of those streaming apps you would like to pay for.

It is still better than traditional cable's terrible packages. But I'll gladly stick with my Plex server and leave all the subscription battling to others.

I am using a setlite dish connected to a decoder. With it I am able to watch like ten local channels, some movie afro movie channels, international news, documentaries with some cartoon channels among other items. I normally pay for monthly subscriptions.

Well, I don't think that these streaming service companies forces anyone to subscribe to any of their services. Yes, there may be so many of them but you have the right to choose the one's which you want to use and stick with them.

Yes, there are too many streaming apps, but having multiple options is good for customers, we can choose the one we like. I frequently switch between different streaming services.

Oh my gosh, waaaay too many streaming apps now! Even with the free ones, I get confused on what app I was using for my shows!

 

[ShawnTheWitcher]

I don't bother downloading so many of them in order not to get confused. I have only Netflix, Spotify and Amazon Prime. The rest doesn't appear on my device.

 

[joelr]

You're missing out! Even the free apps like Pluto, Tubi, etc have some great movies and shows.

 

[Dilip]

It is too many for sure. Who is going to pay for all this?

There should be some plan where we can buy what we want. It is ok to have monthly subscription. But if you like to buy individual shows and movies, there should be an option for that too.

Competition is good for customers. We get choices. I do not like monopoly in the market. I believe there should be more streaming services so that we can get better deals. I believe the existing services are charging too much.

Amen to that! Whenever there's competition for the customer's money, the companies offer better services. It also makes them to take their customer's opinion serious when they give feedback.
