Best streaming services in 2022
Earlier this year it became clear what to plan from Netflix at the end of this year: a new subscription with advertisements, and an additional €2.39 per viewer who watches with your account outside your home. The first stage of this plan has already been implemented in the United States, with a basic subscription at €4.99 per month. And the second step is already done tested.
For many people, this is a reason to cancel Netflix subscription. Because paying even more for the streaming service that is already the most expensive…why would you do that? And who wants to stream with ads? We’ve listed the best streaming services in 2022, so you’ll have plenty to watch even without Netflix.
1.Disney+
Although the name Disney+ suggests that you can only watch good cartoons with this streaming service, that’s certainly not the case. Disney is a giant: they own 20th Century Fox, Pixar, Marvel, Lucasfilm and National Geographic. You can therefore watch all the films of these studios via Disney+.
