Why Choose Streaming?
Did you know that 85% of US households have at least one streaming subscription? More and more people are making the switch from traditional TV. Here’s why:

Saving $ — Streaming can save money because consumers can be more selective about what they’re paying for. Plus, you can put streaming accounts on hold when you’re not using them.

Convenience —Streaming lets you watch what you want, when you want. Plus, most streaming platforms have a commercial-free option.

Personalization — Streaming services make recommendations on what series or movie to watch next based on your viewing profiles.
