Things to do today:

  1. Pay mortgage - done

  2. Pay electric bill - done

  3. Cancel Amazon - and done

Get a VPN after canceling Amazon and download whatever you want. Mullvad is much cheaper than prime video.

Sonarr + Radarr + Transmission-OpenVPN + Ombi + Plex.

For the past ~5 years or so, I’ve had the choice of a polished web UI to pirate any movie or TV show on demand. Up until the past few months, I have still paid for:

  • Netflix
  • Amazon Prime
  • Apple TV+ (as part of Apple One)
  • Disney+
  • YouTube Premium

… because their products and recommendation engines were more user-friendly for my family and I. Since the pattern of price gouging in the last 6-12 months, I now subscribe to:

  • Netflix (cancelling this imminently)
  • Apple Music (Apple One cancelled)

I hope the shameless cash grabs result in a mass exodus of users and really hurt these platforms.

I've recently reached the point where I could barely afford some of them... if they were as good as they were a year ago. Seems I'm sticking to the Seven Seas and my downloaded music library.
