Some of the most subversive shows on TV can be found on FOX: The Simpsons, Family Guy, Bob's Burgers. Viewers also have their pick between reality shows like Hell's Kitchen and MasterChef and game shows like I Can See Your Voice. But maybe FOX's biggest asset is sports: it broadcasts plenty of sporting events, including college basketball and football matches and select MLB and NASCAR games.

Starz and AMC+ share more similarities than differences. They both produce original shows that often get cult-status fame (Power and Interview with the Vampire, anyone?), and they're both available as Amazon Prime add-ons. But they also differ in significant ways. AMC+, despite being cheaper, has a breadth of content from sister channels like Shudder and IFC Films. Meanwhile, Starz has partnered with multiple film studios to feature blockbusters and indies alike. So which is better? We try to answer that question in our breakdown below.
Starz may not enjoy the same recognition as Max, but you could argue that both are great go-to services for quality titles, especially TV shows. Starz has Power, Outlander, Party Down, and Sweetpea, while Max, well, Max has HBO powerhouse shows like Game of Thrones, The Last of Us, Succession, and White Lotus. It's also cheaper than Starz by a dollar. Which is better? That will come down to preference, price, and accessibility - all of which we explore down below.
With the prices of live TV skyrocketing (can you believe YouTubeTV used to be $35/month?), it can be hard to believe that there are still affordable ways to watch local channels cord-free. So in this article, we're rounding up the cheapest streaming services with local channels. Sling TV makes the list since Sling Blue now offers ABC, FOX, and NBC in select markets. As of 2024, FrndlyTV also offers local channels, but don't expect major network affiliates—this one's more independent local channels. Spectrum and Xfinity users have their pick of the litter too in Spectrum TV Choice and NowTV, but make sure to check with customer service for extra fees.
It seems like streaming services went from offering month-long to week-long free trials overnight. Many, like Sling and Max, have even scrapped trials completely. But a rare, special group of streamers offers something between old and new: 14-day trials, which is long enough to fully test a streamer's features and short enough to not disabuse it, we suppose. We're not sure why 30-day-free trials are no longer a thing (except for greed, maybe), but they still exist, and you can read more about them on another page. But here, we're listing the best streaming services that still offer 2-week trials. You can read more about them below.
Netflix launched its streaming offer in 2007, almost 10 years earlier than Starz. The latter never made up for this late start, and deals aside, it even costs more. Still, Starz exclusive hits like Outlander and Sweetpea make Starz a worthy competitor, and one that is increasing focusing on quality more than quantity. Starz in this view, is closer to an HBO than a Netflix.
With all of this said, how do the two compare?
