But what are you really getting? It feels like each service offers approximately one excellent movie every 3-4 months, a handful of mediocre to decent ones and maybe 1 - 2 good TV show series at any given moment. Maybe Im out to lunch and out of touch with what's good, but I feel like the value is abysmal with the big 5 streaming services.

It’s so subjective though. I think it depends what you find entertaining. I have a huge watchlist on Crave and Disney+, so the new content isn’t a big deal because I haven’t even exhausted what is on them now. Plus there is also good stuff on Kanopy, CBC Gem, Tubi which are all free.
I don’t think I would re-subscribe to Netflix though, it’s problem is basically what you described, its problem is the good content is sparse and not a lot being added that I’d want to watch.
