@stammy I had the same thought. I dumped cable years ago - but at this point it feels like streaming TV provides a lower-budget, clunkier UX without any meaningful cost savings.

@yoyoel @stammy they’re all just trying to figure out at what price point we all go back to torrents.

@sangster @yoyoel @stammy genuinely mystified to discover people subscribe to YouTube, what do you watch there that you can't get elsewhere?

@sangster @yoyoel @stammy Also TIL YouTube Premium and YouTube TV are two distinct services neither of which I would pay for. Is it for sports?

@seldo @sangster @yoyoel just for live TV generally. All the regular channels you’d expect (it does sports too)

@stammy @sangster @yoyoel What do you watch on live TV? I am really asking, I haven't had live TV in 20 years and don't know what I would watch there.

@seldo @sangster @yoyoel news, jeopardy, all things Bravo and TLC, random things like channels showing movies, Oscars, I like a few ABC/CBS cop drama shows, etc. Basically just our fallback for “ugh we can’t find anything to watch on Netflix”

@stammy @sangster @yoyoel Thanks for the enlightenment. I am certain I am an outlier since I watch exactly 2 TV shows per week but I thought those things had all gone the way of the Dodo.

@seldo @sangster @yoyoel @stammy avoiding political ads alone on YT is well worth the price of entry to me. Mostly I watch car reviews and videos on electronics repair, etc
