i have a 4k tv and dolby atmos so i go for the top option or it's not taking advantage of my kit at home. The other streaming services don't make that distinction though apart from sky, where you have to take out their top sky q box plus other stuff and i draw the line at that

I have a bad habit of signing up for services, or getting them on a trial, and then not using and forgetting to cancel them.

i pay annual subs where i can. It works out a lot cheaper. Netflix would gain a bit of loyalty if they had an annual cheaper sub or at least rewarded those who have been with them for a while somehow. To me that is the way forward. Make people feel they are valued

Have never felt tempted by any of the higher priced packages. Paying like 75% more just for HD seems crazy
Suppose it depends on your telly... anything under 720p on a 55"+ TV isn't just going to look "not as good" it'll look full-on blurry. I guess some people don't mind that . If you're only watching on a little laptop screen or on a phone/tablet it's probably fine I guess.

Also the "middle" package is £4 more than the cheapest which makes it 57% not 75% more expensive

All three of the big streaming services is cheaper than a TV license + something like Sky, and on-demand services are far better than scheduled television if you have time constraints. The only excuse is base luddism.

I'll be re-subbing for Stranger Things, then i'll be gone again. I prefer Prime anyway, and being on twitch so much, it pays for my sub to my friend (who i'd sub to regardless), so in theory Prime is only costing me £4 a month, and the free delivery on items brought from Amazon has been well worth it.
