Apple TV+ spent $20B on original content. If only people actually watched. (arstechnica.com)

There is nothing that will ever convince me to sign up to Apple TV.

Why?

There's very little content for it to be worth it IMHO. I constantly use whatever 2-3 month free offers that come up, catch up on something and if the free trial expires (you can usually use it on same acct as long as it's not active) I'll just download the remaining few episodes. Shoutout to the redflagdeals people who post the free offers for appletv

Very few are worth it for a longer time. I subscribe to Netflix only about twice a year for a month to catch up on 1-2 shows. Streaming services make it super easy to jump in and out, why not use that?

I'm just anti-Apple. They also don't have much good content, anyway.
