Minor spoilers....kinda
I was as ambivalent about the book as Ove was about his failures in taking his own life. At least for about 3/4 of the book....at some point I was instead reading with tears streaming down my face.

The conception of streaming.
YouTube was and still is revolutionary. The ads however are almost as bad as Facebook ads. If you can afford the subscription, do it.

There are great shows and movies to be watched on Netflix although I feel the shows are normally better than the film's. Great streaming service with regular additions of new things to watch. Netflix originals are my favourites although sometimes it can take ages for you to find something you want to watch.

Wanted to cut cable ties and this offers us a lot of the some channels with Sling, and having Netflix rounds out the movies and some other shows we want. There are some networks that you lose when you cut the cable cord. I wish they would flow over to streaming devices like this.

Spotify is a music streaming channel that allows you to play any music that you may want to listen to. The only downside is all the ads. They do offer premium which has no ads for between $0.99 and about $2.99 each month though. In my opinion, I think Spotify is a great place to stream music.

Not as much choice as US version (0 more)
Great streaming service and original content. One of the new homes for indie film. It is exciting to see films that would never get a theatrical release get more exposure. Any real complaint is that the UK version doesn't offer access to enough movies and old tv shows. But still well worth the price.

Does anyone else ever struggle to find something you’re in the mind to watch?

I find that despite having all the streaming platforms and on demand services, and there being a lot of films and shows I’m interested in seeing, a lot of evenings I can’t find a single thing I actually feel like watching. Is it just me? 😕

Another reason I like physical media. Streaming makes it too easy to change your mind. Once you put in a disk, you instantly become too lazy to get up and change it if it's horrible! I suppose you wouldn't buy something unless you really liked it though.

Yes, all the time! I wind up scrolling through a bunch of platforms and then just watching something I've seen a hundred times instead.

Been streaming a lot more. Trying to hit that affiliate status. We are nearly there on Twitch so if you could help us out that would be appreciated. We will have a move about and turn my home into a studio of some sort and get more live-streams going. Here is the link come give us a follow please www.twitch.tv/Summonedgamesdm

This is just dumb - films like @Mulan (2020) were made to be seen on the big screen.... I'm also not fixin to pay Disney + $29.99 to watch a movie. They should have chosen to do this with Black Widow instead.

They really shouldn't do it with any films. Surely they're going to lose out on a massive amount of income? Crazy.
