I’m so tired of Apple, raising its prices on my subscriptions to my Apple family plan and you haven’t put out a decent show on Apple TV in months. Why am I paying you so much money a month ?

    For All Mankind, Silo, Slow Horses, Foundation, Hijack, Skrinking, Changeling. Those have all either been fairly recent, just came back or are starting again. I don’t know what the OP is looking for.

    They have some of the highest rated and most popular shows out right now. If you don’t like it then don’t subscribe.

    I mean, “decent” is different for different people. Monarch is a great show so far. Slow Horses comes back Wednesday. But no one’s forcing you to sub.

    You do know all streaming services have the same problem. It’s called the Writer’s and also the Actor’s strikes. They put productions on hold for a good 6 months.

    Look, Imo the Family bundle is very expensive. I still pay it though. As a value for a full family, it is still relatively cheaply priced.

    Would I like to see something else added for no additional cost? Console gaming or audiobooks? You bet!

    As for the TV shows. I think the quality has come a long way. Again, imo, Apple wants high quality that is “not offensive” to anyone. They are less concerned about winning awards provided it meets “Apple standards”.

    I think things like Killers of a Flower Moon and the next show from the Breaking Bad creator is Apple chasing those awards. All in all, Apple always plays it safe.

    I’m sure they will continue. If any of us ran a trillion dollar company, we would make the same decisions.

    Why don’t you re-evaluate your subscriptions?

    By this I mean - all the subscriptions tv wise has gone up lately. So look at the ones that maybe have the Black Friday offers still going on - You can find that in r/cordcutters

    If nothing is tempting you from cordcutters - there was someone there who said - to another redditor, just either keep the ones you watch the most. Otherwise - cancel them - watch one and when more tv programs are made for a particular channel - go back and cancel when you watched all there is.

    It does make sense of doing it this way - so that you can feel in control of who is getting your money and that you are getting the value from it whilst watching for just the one month you paid for.

      I rotate subscriptions. Always have Amazon, ‘cause of Prime. I’ll sub to a service, go through all I’m interested in that is all dropped/available. When I start to run out, see what’s out there and sub to a different streaming service. I still see all I want to, plenty of variety, and it saves a crap ton of cash.

    Redditors are all about workers getting paid fairly for their services until it’s them that has to pay.

    Lessons in Chemistry was great, and we have new seasons of Invasion and For All Mankind.

    Apple is by far the best streaming service out there there. I have no problems with the price. If you don’t like anything they’ve brought out then you are extremely picky.
