We know it’s December and that means lots of holiday content to watch, but streaming has more to offer than just endless Christmas cheer. Some of you probably grabbed a streaming service deal during Black Friday week, and need to keep your new subscriptions for Max, Hulu, Peacock and other platforms. Good news: Rebel Moon, Percy Jackson, Marvel’s What If…, Indiana Jones 5 and more releases are hitting our screens this month. We still don’t know when Max is streaming Barbie, so you should decide if the streamer is worth your time.Â
Each month, you may decide to drop a streaming service because of cost and the content that’s currently available. I’d like to offer one strategy during a time of tight budgets:Â Churn like ice cream. Because you may have a new streaming deal for a platform you just signed up for, rather than rotate your services, you can use the list below as a guide for new releases this month.
Otherwise, churn away. Subscribe, cancel, roll with a different service, then resubscribe, keeping your favorites in a rotation. Rotating streaming services can be a money-saver when Netflix, Disney Plus, Max and others aren’t streaming anything you want to watch at a given time. Just remember to shut off autorenewal for your monthly subscriptions. This method may not fly if you’re sharing your streaming accounts, but if you can work out an arrangement with your crew, go for it.Â
Here are my suggestions for which streamers to keep or cancel in December, based on new series and movies (I didn’t consider live TV streaming services) hitting each service. Your tastes may be different, but if nothing else, I urge you to at least consider the concept of rotating for savings. It’s easier than you might think. Remember, a VPN can also be a useful tool when you’re streaming.Â
