We're on three plans already and I don't have a problem with it. Before we cut the cord two years ago, cable was costing us close to $100 a month. With three subscription plans we're only at $40, so we're still away ahead. Sure, it's a bit of an inconvenience having multiple wishlists. But Apple TV has universal voice searches, so I can look anything up and open it directly in a matter of seconds.

This is just the way the market is going. I doubt we'll ever again see one platform with the amount of content Netflix offered four years ago.

But really, video entertainment has never been cheaper. I was talking about this with my wife the other day, and looking back 12 years ago, these were our home video expenses:

Cable: $80/mo
Renting movies at Blockbuster: $40/mo
Buying DVDs and boxed sets: $60/mo

We're spending a fraction of that today for access to far, far more content.
