I used Netflix by mail/streaming. Then when Netflix jacked up the price & split up movies by mail & streaming I “dropped it like it was hot.” Id go to a bar to watch live sports, & Id go to my friends house to watch tv shows. I ended up getting SAT tv cause it was a PITA going to public places/friends house to watch sports, & my shows.
