Nice.
You wasted hundreds of dollars and have nothing to show for it.
You are average!

Just canceled my 4 year old subscription. Can’t wait to hear the complaints from my kid but Netflix is likely next.

The missus and I sat down about a year ago and tabulated up how much all of the various streaming subscriptions were costing us per year (it was close to $1,000 when including YouTube Premium).
We cancelled every single one, and put that money towards building a home NAS and filling that up with downloaded media. No more ads, stupidly low bitrates, or TV shows & movies disappearing because a license expired.
The server has more than paid for itself at this point, and every additional spare dollar is being put aside for our kids’ tuition.

I have a 16TB server and an extensive steam collection. I already explained it to him and he was fine about it.

Even better! What are you running on your server?
Ours is just an old QNAP I dug out of storage with 4x8TB drives in RAID5 - but am eager to try out HexOS on a proper system once I have some spare time.

It’s running windows out of convenience but I’ll be swapping to Linux soon.
