    One Year of Peacock Premium $20

    Disney drops 2.4 million streaming subs

    Netflix stock collapses after 4th quarter earnings report

    I am, actually, not subscribed. (I canceled…whenever.) I figure, “Netflix should pay me to be a subscriber.” This may be the same feeling with numerous persons with regard for any television programming service (in whatever form) one can think of.

    Disney / ESPN Back Up!

    I am not a subscriber of Dish. But, certainly, I hope there will be no more problems for subscribers. This is also with respect for people who subscribe to any service.
