Whether you’re a music lover or a movie buff, there is a subscription service out there for you. In these unprecedented times, where many of us are either working from home or are temporarily furloughed, now is as good a time as any to catch up on some old classics or binge-watch those TV shows we’ve missed.
So, which subscription service is right for you?
Apple music
The four-year-old music service has come into its own over the past couple of years. With over 60 million paying subscribers, its catalogue boasts over 40 million songs, meaning there’s something to suit every taste. It costs £9.99 per month, or for just £5 a month more you can get the family package which gives access to up to six people!
Spotify
One of the most popular music-streaming services, thanks to the fact you can listen to it on your phone, desktop or personal hard drive, Spotify boasts one of the biggest collections of music ever. It’s extremely user-friendly and thanks to its partnership with Facebook, you can set up your account by using your Facebook username.
Netflix
Whether you’re an avid streamer or not, you’ll have heard about this popular platform somewhere. With three different plans available on offer, there’s something for every budget. Netflix is ideal for those who dislike ads between TV shows and films, want to allow family members and friends to use their subscription and want access to over 100,000 shows and movies.
Sky TV
In addition to your usual Sky TV package, Sky Q is a hub that allows you to watch what you want at any location! So, whether you’re at home, with family or on holiday, you can sit down with all your favourite shows and movies. Plus, with the ability to record up to six TV channels at once and save them to your mobile device, you’ll never miss an episode again.
Amazon Prime Video
Whether you choose the £7.99 a month full service or £5.99 just for the instant video streaming, Amazon Prime Video offers a variety of programmes and movies that you can’t find anywhere else. And, as an added bonus to your £7.99 full subscription service, you’ll also get access to one-day delivery on Prime items from Amazon, music streaming, unlimited photo storage and discounts on Amazon Prime Day and Black Friday. What’s not to love!
There’s something for everyone with these subscription services
No matter if you’re a lover of 80s pop or 00s grunge, chick flicks or a drama-filled series, there really is an entertainment subscription service out there for everyone! Like with anything that requires regular monthly payments, consider your budget to ensure you can afford to pay for them. Not just for isolation and lockdown life, these subscription services bring joy to many, all year round.
