I get Hulu free with my Spotify subscription. I have a Netflix password. I currently have a Disney plus password, but I think the person only got it for Hamilton and is going to discontinue the subscription soon. I already re-watched the Star Wars prequels and the final battle scene from Endgame, so I don't really care about losing it.
Maybe some day I'll sign up for the Criterion Channel

Pay for:
Hulu/Disney+/ESPN+ (We do the cheap Hulu at the moment; if/when college football starts up - we will upgrade back to Hulu Live)
Netflix
Amazon Prime TV

We do all of our streaming through Roku on our tvs. Therefore, our son watches Youtube all the time, but just regular Youtube, not Youtube TV.
Very rarely we will stream through my Xbox One - we did it to watch Psych 2 since The Peacock isn't available through the Roku.

Do not have cable - killed it a long time ago.

They had the new season of Killing Eve--so presumably anything on BBC America--but it was awful. Littered with ads, 2+ minute breaks every 7 minutes. Grateful we were using a friend's log-in and hadn't paid for that shit.

Oh and:

Netflix
Hulu
Amazon Prime
Apple TV+

Between these four we haven't had any problems finding something to watch. Usually we have some form of HBO (Now? Go? Max? I honestly don't know the difference) about six months of the year, but we're taking a break right now since Succession is off. We use a Roku. Any occasional sports I watch via a variety of free streams on my laptop, occasionally casting to an old Chromecast. No cable. Haven't had cable since 2010.

Free cable but I never watch it.

I have Netflix, Prime and Hulu, but I might drop Hulu soon.

Mostly I just watch free YouTube videos on my PlayStation.

No. I've never heard of an apartment complex offering it before, but here I am.

Would have been great twenty years ago. It's a pretty useless perk now.

I'm thinking of living in a barrel down by the beach. I have little need for material possessions any more. I'm ascending to a higher plane.

I feel like YouTube TV should have a channel that links directly to YouTube. I hate that I have to close out of the TV app to get to it
