I had a previous account dating back to way before streaming was a thing and they use to mail DVD's to your address but I terminated it years ago.

I don't pay for but I have access to Sling, Disney Plus, Prime and Hulu. Interview with a Vampire is missing in Sling's on demand. I need to rewatch because a new season is coming in June.

I ended up subscribing/purchasing the $8.63 a month plan. Maybe since I just joined I won't get hit with the new increased price for a little while.

I remember paying $75 (Spectrum) a month for basic cable some 3 to 4 years ago and that's during the introductory phase. Once that expires, they jack it up to $175 a month.
