Streaming has gone up in price, and ads are sure to come as many streaming services are already complaining about financial strain, but for now it's still ad free and cheaper than cable in my country, by a long shot. Even if I pay for 3 streaming services.
I honestly hope that some of them go under, and have to revert to renting IP to Netflix again.

Was Uber ever cheaper than a cab? I knew about them fairly early on, and even then the prices were way more than a taxi. The only benefit it really offered was that you may not even have access to a taxi service where you are, but Uber drivers could be your next door neighbor.

Yes, at the beginning I could get an Uber black for under taxi rates. Nowadays I have no idea because Uber essentially ran the taxi companies out of business.
