If you're overwhelmed by all of the streaming video options out there, join us for an overview of the major services, including Netflix, Prime, Hulu, Disney+, HBO, and AppleTV+. Some of the key ideas that we will touch on are pricing, plans, concurrent streaming (how many people can use the service at once), bundles, and a general overview on the type of content on that platform. You'll receive a comparison spreadsheet with all of this information laid out in an easy to read format, and you'll get a chance to ask your questions.
