Is anyone here paying for any of the smaller indie streaming services? And feeling like that's a better value? If I didn't have kids I would skip Netflix, Disney and HBO. Quality has really taken a dive.
Dropout.tv is by far the best value of any streaming service. If you can get into their kind of content (it's only Dropout originals), it's endless entertainment for $5/month.
Examples of what they make:
GameChanger ("the only game show that changes every show") is a cool concept where they come up with a new game show for every episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SsDyNOB1hZs
Dimension 20 is a D&D actual play show with high production value and an insanely creative premise for every season. (Candy Land but Game of Thrones, Manhattan: firefighter is a paladin, ER nurse is a cleric, etc.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_zZxCVBi7-k
They have tons of great shows.
I remembered Kanopy and signed in for the first time in months, did a quick search, instantly found the movie, used 1 of my 10 monthly credits to check it out, watched it and that was that.
Kanopy is a great resource for light consumption of media.
