Quest to Pare Subscriptions

Michael Mitchell
A close-up photo shows a blue credit card with a gold chip resting on a printed bill. Logos for Netflix, Disney+, Peacock, and SiriusXM are clearly visible on the sheet. The text "BILL," "TAX," and "TOTAL AMOUNT" appear above the logos, symbolizing the cumulative cost of multiple streaming subscriptions.

In my continuing battle with subscription fatigue, I’ve decided to drop my SiriusXM satellite radio service — they wouldn’t match the rate I had before, so I let it go 👋. For two years, I paid just $6.98 total (taxes included). It wasn’t the top-tier plan, but it suited my needs, especially since I used it two to four times a week. That subscription ends next month.

I’m also parting ways with my free Netflix access, which came bundled with a Verizon Peacock deal last year. That runs out in July, and honestly, I’m not sure I’ll pay for Netflix on its own. Lately, I’ve been watching more on Prime Video, Disney+, and my own Plex server anyway 🎬.
