How many subscription services do you have running at once?

[Cirice]

I've noticed nowadays everything seems to run on a subscription based service. There are subscription boxes, tiered-plans for online services, online streaming, options for free shipping...
How many do you have running at once ?

I only have an active subscription for my budgeting app which is billed yearly running at all time.
Aside from that, for entertainment (like games or Discord) I tend to only pay one month at a time, not every month, and cancel at the end of said month. I don't like automatic billing and prefer to be in control of my money and my experience.

None at the moment. We were tired of having multiple at once and even when we only had one (Netflix) we decided to get rid of it because we weren't watching enough.

i pay for spotify every month, but that's it lol. i don't really watch TV so there's no need for me to subscribe to streaming services. i did have a minor subscription for a game, but i just cancelled it after one month and didn't pay for it, technically, since i used google play rewards money ahdjfkgk.

Only 1 and that's disney+.

 

[Paperboy012305]

Just one, but I don't use it anymore.

The thing in question, Pocket Camp. I heard it's going to end its online services soon. Does this mean I won't see any players on the maps at all?

Too many.

Disney+ and Netflix. YouTube Music. PlayStation Plus, Nintendo Online, Final Fantasy XIV, and Pokémon Home. Free delivery with Amazon Prime and ASDA. I've subscriptions to products with Huel, MyProtein, and Sneak. Oh and I've a subscribe and save set-up on Amazon for toothpaste because it is way cheaper than buying the specific type I need in-store.

Also considering a subscription to Lose It! Premium as it locks content I'm interested in (macros and syncing information with Fitbit) behind a paywall.

Spotify and NSO. I really hate subscriptions based services and miss one time payment methods. I understand why corporations go this way but I still don't like it at all.

spotify is always my non-negotiable subscription.. the sanity i feel from having no ads and all my music downloaded is easily worth the £10 a month (up from the £6 i've managed to pay the last five odd years for being a student </3)!! other than that i think i only have one other one i pay for personally which is amazon prime, again for convenience, but i also like having the option of it as a streaming service. i also have netflix but my dad pays for that so i don't count it in my head haha

I have a few, but they really aren't expensive at all. I pay $3/mo for Discord, $2/mo for Hulu, $35/year for NSO (so basically ~$3/mo). I also have clip studio paint but I can't recall if I bought a perpetual license or a annual license.

I do watch youtube a lot, but I refuse to give money to them just for no ads, so I'm willing to suffer through skipping ads sometimes and not pay anything lol.

 

[Sheando]

I only have one! I do pay for Spotify because I listen to music on a daily basis. I'm not a TV person, and I live with my partner and another roommate, so they sometimes subscribe to TV providers and occasionally I will watch something with them, but I do not like TV enough to pay to watch it, so none of the subscriptions are in my name.

The only exception is the Olympics. I really like the Olympics, so I'll pay for Peacock for one month every two years, watch as many events as possible, and then retreat into my bubble away from the TV.

Disney+
Hulu
Netflix
Amazon Prime Video
Max (I get it through my moms cable provider)
Paramount+ (also through my moms cable provider)
Peacock

Non-TV Subscriptions:
Discord
Spotify
Nintendo Switch Online

For streaming services, I prefer to only have one active subscription at a time. For things like software, I'll pay it yearly, and then revisit whether I still need it.

 

[Midoriya]

Around two, but I'm looking to get rid of one of them possibly soon.

 

[digimon]

i was about to say none cause i remember cancelling my netflix subscription a few years ago. but i still have a subscription to apple music, nintendo switch online and discord nitro but that’s all i can think of off the top of my head!

 

[ShadowLelouch97]

I five subscription services running. (Eight if you count the three people I'm subscribed to on Twitch)

The following are my non Twitch subscription services:
Xbox Gamepass Ultimate
Disney+
Crunchyroll
Twitch Turbo
Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack

 

[skarmoury]

I only have two that I regularly pay for: Nintendo Online and Spotify. Right now I'm also subscribed to Discord Nitro & a mobile app for fixing NAT issues (for switch online games) but I plan to cancel subscription once the month is over.

I've been mulling over Youtube Premium, but I have adblock and it's working okay (at least on my windows PC).

 

[lieryl]

i was so ready to answer that i only have spotify, but reading through this thread has made me realize how many i actually have LOL i am currently paying for spotify, discord nitro, nintendo online, and netflix :]

 

[Neb]

I have a ton of subscriptions. One is the music app Tidal, another is Nintendo Switch Online, and the rest are a bunch of streaming services I barely use anymore. I honestly need to use them more since they all add up to so much.

 

[Xara]

I currently have 6 (7 if paying monthly for extra iCloud storage counts): Netflix, Disney+, Amazon Prime, Nintendo Switch Online, VSCO and Discord Nitro, but I only pay for the last 3 and my iCloud storage. My parents pay for the streaming services.
