Please use spoiler tags whenever commenting a spoiler in a non-spoiler thread. Most of the Lemmy clients don't support this but we want to get into the habit as clients will be supporting in the future.

Can confirm. Got rid of everything this year except the YouTube Premium family plan. It gives us all the music of Spotify, tons of free movies and TV shows YouTube offers for streaming without ads, and of course all other YouTube videos without ads. You also get to play YouTube videos with your phone off, which is nice if you just want to go to sleep listening to something. And you get to add five different people, so we have me, my wife, my daughter and both mothers-in-law on the same plan. It's been really cost-effective. We're paying a fraction of what we paid before with a similar level of professional content that I actually care about watching (YouTube doesn't make most of the shows and movies they offer, so they tend to be ones they think people already like).
