Unfortunately, free to air became unwatchable rubbish for me. I have Foxtel, Netflix, Prime, Acorn Britbox, combine these with SBS on demand, Iview Tubi etc. i am never stuck for something to watch. by packaging some of these together they are affordable. I do not drink or smoke and spend a lot of time at home alone, so this is my guilty pleasure.

I don't drink or smoke either, but nonetheless I can't justify the cost of these different streaming services. I have my phone with Amaysim
$10/month unlimited text and calls.
I use a USB for my laptop, pay $150 credit which is for 12 months, so I usually need to do this twice a year
but I can't find anywhere a plan for anywhere near this price.
I do agree that most of the free to air channels these days are just rubbish.
I watch the news, current affairs, quiz shows mainly, really find no need to waste my time watching the idiot box. Our small country town have a great supply of continually changing DVDs, including series like Outlander, etc. which we can get for free.
I do a lot of crosswords and read a lot. Also, best of all, save a lot of 💰.

I’ve been thinking about streaming services a lot lately. I have to say, having so many options is both a blessing and a curse. On the one hand, it's fantastic to have so much content at our fingertips, but on the other hand, it can get overwhelming trying to choose what to watch. I’ve found that having a few reliable sources helps cut down on the confusion. For example, I’ve been using blueangel.host lately, and it’s been great for streaming without any hiccups. It might be worth checking out if you’re looking for something new.

No paid streaming services in my house only free to air but we do watch quite a lot of ABC, SBS and any Documentaries as well as our Granddaughter when she is playing AFWL for Tasmania ;)
