That's how I was deemed ineligible for the Hulu deal this year. Good tip. Figuring out how these work together is beyond my skills. When I clicked on the link to accept the offer Hulu sent via email, the log-in screen said: "Log in to Hulu with your MyDisney account. If you don't have one, you will be prompted to create one." It's done that for some time now. I don't have a MyDisney account. I have my own internet domain and always set up unique email address for everything, and for hulu it's hulu@myowninternetdomain.com. (For roku, it's roku@myowninternetcomain.com.) I've never subscribed to Disney. I forged ahead and used hulu@myowninternetdomain.com and it worked. I guess my Hulu account is my MyDisney Account, even though I've never subscribed to Disney? Who the hell knows. Anyway, all of this will work only if they maintain the requirement that a person not to have been a subscriber for 30 days, and don't change it to something longer. But it's worth a shot. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/16493-to-subscribe-or-not-to-subscribe-that-is-the-question-paid-streaming-services/page/50/#findComment-8520493
AheadofStraight December 1 Share December 1 Since I have made up at least 4 email accounts specifically for Hulu lol, I am just re-using one of the previous ones I cancelled as they all got the offer sent for Black Friday. I guess I'll just swap back and forth each year! 2 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/16493-to-subscribe-or-not-to-subscribe-that-is-the-question-paid-streaming-services/page/50/#findComment-8521558

StatisticalOutlier December 7 Share December 7 I'm not a fan of everything being labeled as "gaslighting" these days, but streaming is making me question reality. I have access to Max now, and last night settled in to watch the latest season of Somebody Somewhere. So I go to Max on my TV (via Roku) and find the screen for the show, and where you can click on which season to watch, and there are three seasons. I go to Season 3, but the only episode is a trailer. So I check Seasons 1 and 2 and they have all their episodes, so I navigate out of Max and go back in and there's still only the trailer for Season 3 and no episodes. But I see up in the corner something about a new episode on Sunday, so I wonder if I happened to do this right before Season 3 starts. So I go to the discussions here and there are six episodes being discussed; Season 3 started in October. Grrrr. So I do other stuff and later go to Max and check one. more. time. and there's the same screen, but this time when I go to Season 3 the episodes are there. I know for 100% certain that those episodes were not there just an hour or so earlier, and I know that because I would have watched them. And I wouldn't have watched the trailer if there were episodes to be seen. They were not there. But then they were. I hate this. 1 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/16493-to-subscribe-or-not-to-subscribe-that-is-the-question-paid-streaming-services/page/50/#findComment-8526677

Anela Thursday at 08:54 PM Share Thursday at 08:54 PM (edited) We still haven’t got rid of prime, that’s going to happen, but I went with the free music subscription, so that I could listen to Christmas albums. Now I’m hearing about an amazon strike. I didn’t mean to cross a picket line, if I did. I’m going to do a YouTube tv free trial, so that I can try to watch Home Alone, with dad. We haven’t watched any Christmas movies, he’s been too busy, and I found out that it’s on Disney plus, or cable. On 11/28/2024 at 10:12 PM, StatisticalOutlier said: Good tip.

But it's worth a shot. I have Hulu and max separately, but I’m thinking of trying the bundle. I don’t have Disney, but I did for a long time, amd they said I’d be saving 42%.

Mittengirl Yest. at 06:09 AM Share Yest. at 06:09 AM Roku is offering 30+ streaming channels for $1.99/ month for a limited time. Most offers seem to be 2 or 3 months at the sale price. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/16493-to-subscribe-or-not-to-subscribe-that-is-the-question-paid-streaming-services/page/50/#findComment-8539168
