My husband who thinks this is all ridiculous was satisfied with just over the air (we get 6 channels only) and Netflix. My so gave me a subscription to Hulu so I could watch Handmaids Tale then I picked it up after the first year. We now have Amazon, Hulu and Netflix and I love all the different things we can see. I have a pretty bad case of tinnitus and keeping the TV on at a low level helps keep me from losing my mind. I also sleep with it on quietly so having different things to either ignore, watch or sleep through is helpful.

We had DirecTV and this is def cheaper than that and we never watched most of what came in their packages.
