Yes I do pay for wfi but nothing for any of the streaming many dozens of apps that are free to me at no additional charge except for Amazon Prime at $100.00 per year and most movies I watch are free on Prime or dirt cheap. When I had overpriced cable many years ago I was forced to watch long commercials on all movies and TV shows. My free movie apps include Crackle, FilmRise, Peacock, Pluto and many many more for a total of thousands of movies and Tv shows. I just signed up for Hulu for many many free movies and TV shows for only $1.99 per month for one year and can cancel at any time without penalty (Black Friday deal).
My At&T phone is cheap old prepaid plan with no data feature so I do not pay for hotspot or data. As a backup and mobile wifi I have a grandfathered cheap AT&T $22.00 per month Mobley mobile car hotspot that I use also at home as car is parked just outside my patio doors and also have the AC adapter for in home use. I receive a vet discount on that one.
I have old Roku and Fire stick devices that were cheap onetime purchases. To me dirt cheap is same as free. Anything else?? Cheers
