What To Watch? Trending On Amazon and Netflix + The Best Streaming Services Dear Creatives

What to watch right now? I am all about my home entertainment, it fits my lifestyle. What about you? But, today I bit adieu to my local cable streaming service. After years of price hikes and gouging, I am trekking into other streaming services for my television viewing and movies. I am breaking up with cable! With that said I am sharing the best streaming services, I use and might try. And what I am watching tv, movies, series and shows that you need on your what to watch list.

What To Watch

You know, there are times when you just say enough. Even with a bundled deal of cable tv, phone service, and internet, it was time to let go of my cable tv service. Pricing had gotten to be too much for us. This isn’t an ad for anyone I’m just talking about what’s going on in our family. With Sammie going to college and our health insurance costs through the roof. We needed to cut costs to afford the lifestyle we love.

We already have Prime, which comes with streaming movies, series, and shows. And they have an app. for your cell phone too. They offer movie classics, new shows, made for Amazon Prime and shows you can purchase. I have loved some of the shows I have watched recently.

My most used features for Amazon Prime are the free shipping, Try Before You Buy, and Amazon streaming service. These all come with Amazon Prime. I can honestly say, we get our money’s worth from the service. Especially, living in a rural area, where shopping isn’t king for choices.
