My favorite platform is iTunes, because it lets you download the files for offline viewing, and removing the DRM is trivially simple.

Piracy is the only stable platform for this. I'm constantly moving between services following the "seasons" of the things I like rather than continuing to pay during the droughts.

It used to be Netflix though. Back when they were one of the only streaming services and had a way bigger back catalogue of syndicated shows.

The worst is Paramount +. They absconded all the Star Trek there, and the service has literally never actually worked for me to watch anything on it, so I end up pirating Discovery, Picard and Lower Decks anyway.
