1. Their service is awful.

We only got it to watch a couple of series. When we're done, Hulu is done. We don't pay for ad free so maybe it's better but the service is terrible. Lots of tiny pauses while playing—only a second or two, but sometimes you have to get out of the show & start over to clear it. Then there are times when the show just cuts to a blank screen with the buffering circle. The worst is pausing. And when you pause playing on your own, for some reason it can rarely get you back to the place you were watching & often takes you to the wrong episode, even. It sucks. Worse than Sling, even. Which I got to watch the J6 hearings & will cancel until they're back in fall. I keep all my subs on a calendar with reminders. Streaming is not the carefree, easy access digital dream it was puffed up to be. Don't get me started on really old titles that either rent for the same cost as new titles or can only be purchased.
