I Cut the Cord—Then Streaming Became Cable

I canceled almost every streaming service after rising prices and ads turned cord cutting into cable all over again. I kept Netflix and Peacock, canceled the rest, and built a simpler way to rotate subscriptions without paying for apps I rarely watch.Streaming promised cheaper TV, fewer bundles, and freedom from commercials. Instead, Netflix, Disney+, Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV+, Peacock, and other streaming services split entertainment across more monthly bills while ad-supported tiers became the norm.In this fast episode, JP follows the charges on his own bank statement, explains how subscription fatigue took over cord cutting, and asks whether the streaming model failed its original promise. The answer isn’t crawling back to cable TV—it’s keeping the services you actually use, rotating the rest, trying free streaming options, and owning the movies and shows you love.What did you cancel, what did you keep, and which streaming service finally pushed you too far?💜 Patreon: https://tinyurl.com/EgoPatreon💵 Tip Jar / PayPal: https://paypal.me/egotasticfuntime▶️ Egotastic FunTime: https://www.youtube.com/@EgotasticFunTime🚀 Talking The Orville: https://www.youtube.com/@TALKINGTHEORVILLE🎧 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5GFicOch6Up1mlmzomOgir📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/egotasticfuntime/𝕏 Twitter: https://x.com/EgotasticFT
