> a lot of people including me do not have time to do this every month

This is ridiculous. If you don't have ten minutes of time every month, you certainly don't have time to be watching any television.

I will go out on a limb and assume you do not have kids.

The number of other 10 minute jobs I passively ignore a month could probably take up a significant portion of my free time, and many of those would probably provide more reward then trying to send a signal to a billion dollar corporation this way (shopping around for slightly better contracts, accounts, finding the cheapest variant of a product, etc.).

There's enough to do in life that everyone makes trade offs on what they're willing to spend their limited time on, personally I'm not willing to spend my time solving a problem that can absolutely be solved technologically but is prevented from being so by intransigence

… do you think this somehow strengthens your position? On top of being unfair and condescending, you just gave everyone another reason you should not have the time to watch enough streaming services to warrant spending the time to administer all the subscriptions in the manner suggested.

I’m going to go out on a limb and assume other parents reading your comment don’t sympathize with your position. At least this one doesn’t.

Well I find it unfair and condescending of you to suggest I, as a busy parent, should not watch TV :) I did not ask anyone not to pay subscription fees.

It is just a matter of priority. Even before becoming a parent, I would find it hard to justify spending time on optimizing my subscription expenses, especially being forced by large media corps, and completely unnecessarily.
