The best streaming subscription I've ever paid money for is Mullvad. I run my Radarr box through a VPN so my ISP doesn't complain and hijack my DNS.

I can search for any show, movie, music, or book ever published and have a copy with permanent unrestricted access forever, for free.

Fuck all these subscription services. Approximately none of the money you pay goes to the actors, musicians, authors that actually produced the work, it all goes to Amazon and Netflix and Disney. If the people who make your media don't get paid either way, why bother paying Amazon and Netflix for an inferior product, inferior service, and inferior experience?

Big Streaming has unwittingly fully conceeded the piracy wars to the pirates.
