Plus you only get HD and UHD channels.
That's my strategy. Prime (with ads) is free for me because we use Amazon a lot, and I maintain the Netflix Subscription as it is worth it (it also gives me a free Twitch sub, which goes to Critical Role). Then I pick up services like HBO (Crave in Canada), D+, ect. periodically to catch up on stuff we like. We have an Apple+ family account for music streaming and also get some cool media through that. And there's DDB.
Physical stuff has one big advantage. You can borrow them, don't need to own everything. Back in era of dead wood books, dvds and music cds, borrowing to and from friends was pretty normal thing. You buy some stuff, they buy, when you finish reading/listening/watching/playing, you give it to friend, they give it to you. But yes, streaming is way more convenience and you get access to lot more stuff for much less money, but you aren't buying anything in sense of ownership. You are just paying for access most of the time.
A lot of people have said how they like physical RPG books and novels and reading - I go ebook because I can carry all the books with me, and if I want to read something that I didn't think of before I left home, I can just read it.
Its interesting for me to think about. Board games and RPGs are the only significant thing I have physically I have not consumed or would re-consume. If I were to stop my handful of subs, id need to go out and buy physical stuff immediately so I had something. Not always the case since about 6 years ago I did a major purge of old DVD, books, video games, etc.. becasue they were just taking up space and Id never go back to them, or had access via subs.
I can see that, though I'm the exact opposite. I like (a) Being able to excise what I want to have it when I need it and (b) to be able to easily index and search for references electronically.
