We used to think the future of TV was all about curated, subscription-only libraries. Now the story is shifting: as prices for Netflix, Disney+ and others climb, sometimes doubling since launch, viewers are rediscovering free, ad-supported streaming as a practical alternative. It's like it's the 80's all over again! Services like The Roku Channel and Tubi are becoming destinations offering movies, shows and even live channels without a monthly fee. That doesnโ€™t just save money, it simplifies choice when the premium stack becomes increasingly tangled and expensive. ๐Ÿซฐ This isnโ€™t about abandoning quality; itโ€™s about value. As we balance our entertainment budgets, free streaming services may reshape how we think about content economics, and force traditional players to rethink price and packaging.

TL;DR
๐Ÿง  premium streaming prices keep climbing
โšก free, ad-supported content is gaining traction
๐ŸŽ“ viewers prioritize simplicity and value
๐Ÿ” the entertainment landscape is evolving
