While this is true, Netflix hiked prices massively over the years. Their 4K/HDR offering is 17.99 EUR per month here. Amazon Prime including Prime Video is still 8.99 EUR/month, cheaper if paid yearly, without any surcharge for 4K/HDR. So that's more than twice the price for a comparable streaming service.

I cancelled Netflix and will resubscribe for a month over Christmas; they did me a favour with that one.
I just recalled that Amazon increased the price slightly last year when they launched Rings of Power.

Typically I subscribe to these services for just a few months at a time, depending on what's interesting. Harder to do with accounts that are shared by a larger household, I guess.

As an F1 fan I subscribe each year for Drive to Survive just for a month (and I hate the fake commentaries, but has some interesting content).
