Looking to do a little spring cleaning of your streaming services? A new month is the perfect time to reduce the clutter of your streaming bill.There are so many platforms now and paying for all them can really eat away at your bank account. Americans now pay an average of $61 a month for streaming services, according to a Deloitte report — or a hefty $732 a year.
In 2025, streaming costs are higher than ever.There is a way to save money on streaming, though, and still watch your favorite shows and new movies: It's called churning. That involves canceling one or more services for a short time and re-subscribing later when a must-see title premieres.
For April 2025, I would cancel Prime Video and Paramount Plus and here's why I think you should consider it.Why I'd cancel Prime Video in April 2025Since Prime Video comes with an Amazon Prime membership, you may think of it as "free." But a Prime account is not cheap and a Prime Video standalone subscription is one of the pricier ones among streaming services.
If I'm plunking down that kind of cash, I want to know I'm getting my money's worth. And this month, Prime Video isn't serving up enough to make a Prime membership or even just the standalone plan worth it."Reacher" just finished its third season and the currently airing "Wheel of Time" season 3 is a yawn.
There's no returning hit like "The Boys" season 5 or "The Summer I Turned Pretty" season 3 to catch my interest.I will be a bit sorry to miss the premiere of "Étoile," .
