Personally, the value proposition for Netflix is really lacking compared to Amazon Prime (which also comes with prime video and Amazon music) and Apple One family (which also comes with Apple Music, extra iCloud storage, Apple TV and Apple Arcade) which I have so it was pretty easy to cancel my Netflix subscription.
If I could bundle Netflix with something else it might make it worth it but comparatively the content on Apple TV is so much better than anything Netflix have at the moment, in my opinion (really enjoying Silo atm but have loved Ted Lasso, Severance, The After Party amongst others).
Netflix is essentially the equivalent of the DVD bargain bin at Walmart... lots of stuff to choose from, but none of it is remotely watchable.
Except so much of prime video you still have to pay to watch, like specifically rent even though you're already paying a subscription.
Yeah that’s fair enough. Tbh, I’ve only watched 1 series on Prime - Upload - but otherwise can’t really recall what else I’ve watching on there (it’s probably been a few months since I’ve even opened it). I buy heaps of stuff on Prime though so that’s my main use although I do like Music too as some of the podcasts I listen to are ad free on there (eg. Smartless, The Lowe Post).
