      How Much Would You Spend on Streaming Services Per Month?

      A PCMag survey of 1,001 US streaming subscribers found that customers would pay an average of $33 per month for all their streaming services combined. From Apple TV+ and Disney+ to HBO Max, there will soon be more apps competing for that budget than ever
      The next wave of video streaming services will crest in November with the launches of Disney+ and Apple TV+, and consumers will the faced with the first of many decisions over which apps are worth devoting another another couple bucks each month to streaming content. PCMag recently surveyed 1,001 US consumers who currently use streaming services, the majority of whom said they don't plan on subscribing to any new services, whether Disney and Apple's offerings, HBO Max, or NBCUniversal's forthcoming app. We also polled respondents on how much they'd be willing to pay for streaming content per month, both for an individual service and as a monthly total.

      Let's see:
      Netflix - $15
      Hulu - $13
      Disney+ - $4.25
      Total = $32.25...

      Now that game of thrones is over, I'm not sure I'll ever bother with HBO again, though I could possibly see dumping Netflix for a month, picking up HBO, bing the new show, then reversing it.
      Not willing to pay for CBS online - screw that noise!

      Just $28 for me, no Disney+. And we use the cheap Hulu option. So I think more like $23.

          I really want to avoid adds, so I pay for the expensive Hulu... And Disney+ had a sale for 33% off if you paid in full for 2 or 3 years... so I did... They have a ton of new Star Wars stuff coming... so it was kinda worth it for that.

            I constantly forget about prime, but I have prime for shipping, not because of the shows - I so RARELY watch anything on Amazon.

              Same here, we have it already and don't get it for the video, so we don't include it as we don't care.

                Prime has good content. I like a lot of their originals. The only thing I don't like is that they lump the shit you have to pay for (rent/buy) in with the included with prime.

                        Amazon had some kind of issue where their system forgets what videos they actually have - and instead of just playing said video, it offers you to buy it. They did fix after a day or so.

                          How Much Would You Spend on Streaming Services Per Month?

                          A PCMag survey of 1,001 US streaming subscribers found that customers would pay an average of $33 per month for all their streaming services combined. From Apple TV+ and Disney+ to HBO Max, there will soon be more apps competing for that budget than ever
                          The next wave of video streaming services will crest in November with the launches of Disney+ and Apple TV+, and consumers will the faced with the first of many decisions over which apps are worth devoting another another couple bucks each month to streaming content. PCMag recently surveyed 1,001 US consumers who currently use streaming services, the majority of whom said they don't plan on subscribing to any new services, whether Disney and Apple's offerings, HBO Max, or NBCUniversal's forthcoming app. We also polled respondents on how much they'd be willing to pay for streaming content per month, both for an individual service and as a monthly total.

                          Let's see:
                          Netflix - $15
                          Hulu - $13
                          Disney+ - $4.25
                          Total = $32.25...

                          Now that game of thrones is over, I'm not sure I'll ever bother with HBO again, though I could possibly see dumping Netflix for a month, picking up HBO, bing the new show, then reversing it.
                          Not willing to pay for CBS online - screw that noise!

                          Just $28 for me, no Disney+. And we use the cheap Hulu option. So I think more like $23.

                          +10$/month for me for Prime.

                          I constantly forget about prime, but I have prime for shipping, not because of the shows - I so RARELY watch anything on Amazon.

                          Same here, we have it already and don't get it for the video, so we don't include it as we don't care.

                          Prime has good content. I like a lot of their originals. The only thing I don't like is that they lump the shit you have to pay for (rent/buy) in with the included with prime.

                          I do wish they would make it better to navigate... but I binged two of their series recently, The Boys and Carnival Row, both were phenomenally well done.

                          The Boys was fantastic. And besides some good originals, they have lots of random stand up comedy specials, as well as all the cheesy B-movies you could ever want (I love those).

                            VRV - $9.99 / month
                            Netflix - $12.99 / month

                            Total = $22.98 / month

                            I may switch from Netflix if the stuff I want to watch really ends up on something else. But so far, nothing is enough to make me switch.

                              We're lucky enough to have the gf's mom's cable TV login, so we get lots of content we don't pay for directly.

                                Looks like CentOS 8 is coming next week. Looking for other links to confirm.

                                    Google Is Adding 4 Data Saving Features to Android TV

                                    Not everyone has access to Wi-Fi at home, so Google is making Android TV less data hungry for mobile hotspot users.
                                    If you own a Smart TV that uses Android TV, it's soon going to be possible to watch up to three-times longer using the same amount of data. If you're reliant on a mobile hotspot with a data cap when streaming, that's going to come as very good news. As TechCrunch reports, Google announced four new data saver features for Android TV this week ahead of an event being held in New Delhi on Thursday. The features are initially going targeted at the millions of consumers in India who don't have access to a reliable wired internet connection at home and instead rely on a mobile hotspot for access and a hard limit on the data they can consume every month.

                                      Urrr OK?

                                      The B250 D32-D3 uniqueness lies in the magnanimous number of SATA ports.

                                      The motherboard evidently has an LGA 1151 socket, and it's based on the Intel B250 chipset, so processor support is limited to older Skylake and Kaby Lake chips. The B250 D32-D3 isn't your ordinary motherboard, though. It doesn't draw power from a 24-pin power connector, but, instead, from what looks like six 6-pin PCIe power connectors. However, the motherboard's uniqueness lies in the magnanimous number of SATA ports. 32!

                                          Yeah. I'd check in on their timeline on the wiki and it looked like it was never moving.
