At this point, I don’t think there is a single streaming service worth the subscription price. What’s more distressing is that, rather than learning their lessons, these companies will collude to scare people into subscribing with repeats of the copyright crackdowns and corporate empowerment of the late 90s and early 2000s.
I hear good things about nebula.
I recently subscribed. It's only $3/mo so it's really inexpensive, but also it feels like it's just a heavily curated YouTube.
There's nothing I've found on nebula that's not also on YouTube. The only real benefit (to me, not the creators) is that there's no sponsorship in the video.
That being said, the app isn't as polished and I feel like I'm just remembering which creators I follow on both and when I see a new video from one of them in YouTube, I flip to nebula to watch it, then go back to YouTube for my other subscriptions.
