Streaming Deals FAQs

What is the best streaming service?

If you're looking for a rundown of the best, check out our guide to the best streaming services. Otherwise, it really all depends on what you're looking for. Disney Plus is the best for Sci-Fi as it offers both the Star Wars and Marvel universes and it's consistently producing new content within those franchises. Outside of America, Hulu is also integrated, meaning the Alien and Predator franchises are available to stream, too.

If it's brand new Sci-Fi you're looking for, Apple TV is hard to beat. Shows like Severance, Pluribus, Murderbot, Silo and more have proven to be hits and have all been released in the last couple of years.

If you're looking for more than just streaming, then Amazon Prime is probably your best option. Yes, it's more expensive, but you get access to Amazon's other streaming channels, not just Prime Video, and you get fast shipping with online orders included.

When is the best time to get a streaming deal?
