I don't think the era of cheap streaming is over, on the contrary, it's greater than it's ever been.

My selfhosted Plex and Jellyfin are booming, and services like Netflix and Disney+ just made my family and friends to adopt the streaming services faster.

I stop paying two years ago and I've noticed no difference in quality or content.

Thanks Netflix for rekindling my love for the seven seas.

How do you like Jellyfin? I picked up the Plex lifetime membership waaay back in the day and have been using it consistently for the past 5-ish years, but audio (at least in the web player) is so hit and miss - 5.1 down mixing to stereo is always way too quiet no matter what settings I mess with.
