I don't worry about subscriptions too much. My basic personal finance strategy is to spend more time worrying about the big stuff (where I live, what car I drive, my job/income) and not worry about the little things. I just checked YNAB and I spend about $100-200/month on "monthly internet services" that's basically what my parents spent on their monthly cable bill when I was a child and they only ever used 10 channels.

I think you should prune services you don't use a handful of times a year, but other than that don't stress about something that costs less than Chipotle, even if it is recurring.
