Streaming services have been consistently raising their prices, leaving many users wondering if it's still worth paying the monthly fee. However, there are ways to save money on these popular streaming platforms.
One way to cut costs is to look for deals that bundle multiple services together at a discounted rate. For example, Fubo Pro, which includes 224 channels, unlimited cloud DVR, and up to 10 simultaneous streams, can be purchased for $55 per month for the first month, resulting in a discount of $30.
Another option is to pay upfront for a year's subscription instead of paying monthly. This can lead to significant savings over time. For instance, MasterClass offers up to 50% off annual subscriptions, while Amazon Music Unlimited provides three months free with an annual payment.
Additionally, some streaming services offer student discounts when you provide proof of enrollment at an accredited educational institution. These deals can be substantial, such as HBO Max's ad-supported tier for $5 per month (50% off) and Spotify's Premium + Hulu bundle for $6 per month (72% off).
Peacock TV also offers a deal for paying upfront for a year, while Paramount+ Essential with ads costs $8 per month or $60 per year. However, the more expensive Paramount Premium plan without ads costs $13 per month or $120 per year.
It's worth noting that these deals often have limited time frames and may require verifying your student status through Unidays for HBO Max and Spotify.

! Like, I get it, they gotta make a living but come on... Can't we just find ways to save some cash? 
For me, it's all about looking out for those student discounts 
- HBO Max and Spotify are killing the game with 50% off annual subs. And Fubo Pro is another great deal, $55 for 224 channels is a steal! 
I'm thinking of switching to Peacock TV too, they've got some sweet upfront payment deals going on. But yeah, gotta act fast 'cause these offers don't last long 
. I mean, who can afford another $10 on top of the Netflix subscription? I've been using Peacock TV for a while now, but I recently realized they're charging more if you pay upfront for the year 
.
. I've heard that HBO Max has an ad-supported tier now for $5 per month, which is 50% off the regular price 
. If you're a student, it's definitely worth checking out 
.
anyone have any fave classes?
. like, $5 for hbo max is a steal! also, paying annual instead of monthly can be super cost-effective, especially if you're already gonna use all the features. i'm thinking about switching to fubo pro too, 224 channels ain't bad 
.
. Plus, student discounts are super legit too - HBO Max and Spotify offer some serious discounts when you provide your school ID 
. But, yay! It looks like there are some legit ways to save money, like those bundle deals and upfront payments 
. Like MasterClass is offering 50% off which is insane! But what really caught my eye was HBO Max's ad-supported tier at $5/month, that's like half price 
. I'm totally signing up for that with my eldest, and maybe even looking into those student discounts too 
. Like Fubo Pro is a total steal right now! I mean, $55 for 10 simultaneous streams is insane! 
. Plus, student discounts are always a nice perk... who doesn't love saving money on their favorite tunes and shows while also proving they're actually studying something 
. Anyway, I think it's great that these services offer flexible pricing options - now if only they'd stick to them for longer than 6 months...
