You basically nailed it specifically on live TV and sports for my use case.

I subscribe to Hulu Live for a portion of the year when the European football season is in full swing. Typically I tune in for the second half of the season.

But as soon as the season wraps and the major trophies or shields are awarded, I downgrade to the regular subscription.

I just don’t watch enough TV, on demand or live, to justify it otherwise.

We’ve got Netflix, Hulu, HBO (included with cell plan), and Disney. That already feels like one too many but our family has a weird breakdown:

- I watch shows on Hulu

- My wife watches shows on Netflix

- My wife and I watch shows on HBO together

- Our family (kids + adults) watch shows on Disney

It’s not ideal but we have the disposable income for it and so it is what it is.
