With so many streaming platforms out there, it's easy to feel like you're missing out. But instead of individually purchasing and switching between countless subscriptions, there is a case to be made that add-ons and bundles are the most cost-effective way to cover ground and stay on top of the latest movies and TV shows.

The Disney+ bundle (which includes Hulu and ESPN+) has something for each family member, while Sling TV packages can be customized for anybody and everybody. It has news, entertainment, and sports channel bundles—name it, Sling probably has it. And if you're looking for something more specific to your viewing needs, plenty of streamers are available as add-ons to existing platforms like Amazon Prime and Hulu. These extras, as they're sometimes called, include Starz, Showtime, Paramount+, and AMC+. 

Below, we list the best cord-cutting add-ons currently available in the market.

The good news is that most (if not all) live TV streaming services allow you to record and store content via cloud DVR. Even better, a number of them allow unlimited hours of recording, which you can then store from 30 days up to a whole year. Of course, cloud DVR shouldn't be the sole basis for picking one streamer over the other, but given its range across platforms, it's certainly worth considering. Besides, for many of us, it's this nifty feature that finally convinced us to cut the cord and move into streaming.

Right off the bat, you should know that YouTube TV's DVR touts unlimited storage, currently making it the best in this regard. But other streamers, which we've listed down below, are still worth checking out since they compete in areas like channel line-up, price, and time limit. Read on to see how they stack against each other. 

Amazon Prime is, hands down, the best streaming service for watching Westerns. Not only does its catalog include classics from the early 20th century, but it also boasts original titles. Prime's The English and Outer Range, for instance, are inventive takes on the genre. But if you're looking for the best streaming service for your Wild West needs, there are other places to look to too. Max is a worthy contender, considering it has some of the most diverse libraries in general, and so are Netflix and The Criterion Channel. 

Below, we list down the best streaming services you can check out for quality Westerns. 

Because HBO tends to be known for its adult-oriented programming and darker original series, people may forget that the network's library is wide enough for it to still include feel-good entertainment. Thanks to their access to some older classics and premiere exports from other countries, HBO is just as viable an option for viewers in need of a pick-me-up or in need of options for casual group viewing. So we at agoodmovietowatch have put together a list of high-quality films available on the service that might not be your obvious choices, but that should still leave you satisfied and with a smile on your face.

Stand-up isn't for everyone, but for those who subscribe to its shared, observational humor, it can be delightfully addicting. The relaxed confidence of the comedian, the easy laughter of the audience, and the chill ambiance of the live sets are all surely worth returning to if the thousands of stand-up specials on TV are anything to go by. 

Thankfully, many of them can be found on streaming services. Netflix leads in that regard (here you'll find a good mix of established comics and up-and-coming voices) but other streamers are also carving out a space for it. Below, we round up the best streaming services for stand-up fans. 

Internet-based TV has gone a long way since the cord-cutting movement began. In July 2022, YouTube announced that its live TV streaming service, YouTube TV, has amassed a whopping five million subscribers, dethroning Hulu with Live TV from its top spot as the streamer with the most subscribers. 

While popularity is arbitrary for the most part, it can sometimes be a helpful measure to gauge quality. After all, they must be doing something right to gain that many subscribers. So below, in no particular order, we round up the 10 most popular live TV streaming services at the moment.

If you're of the belief that quantity trumps quality, then chances are you're looking for the streaming service with the most options. In that case, we've gathered the top ten services with the biggest libraries, as of this writing. You won't be shocked to find Netflix and Amazon Prime Video here, considering that these two are the biggest names in streaming at the moment, but it may come as a pleasant surprise that a free service like Tubi has a library that doesn't just make the cut, but easily dwarfs Netflix and Prime Video's catalogs combined. It has more than 40,000 titles, compared to Prime Video's 21,000 and Netflix's 17,000. 

Ranked in no particular order, below are the services with the most number of titles at the moment. 

Amazon Prime Video has become an invaluable resource for making all kinds of film available around the world, thanks not only to the service's vast library of streaming titles, but also to the option of buying or renting a seemingly endless number of movies on demand. This makes Amazon especially useful for distributing documentaries, which don't normally get the kind of widespread airtime that narrative features do. So with so many docs and nonfiction features now at your fingertips, we at agoodmovietowatch have listed 50 of the best but still little-known documentaries you can access on Prime—and that's just the tip of the iceberg.

When it comes to seedy serial killer shows and creepy cult exposes, Netflix is pretty hard to beat. The streamer puts out countless true crime titles every week, no doubt satisfying the genre's many fans. But Netflix isn't alone in this; true crime has become such a hit among audiences that plenty of other streaming services are dedicating entire catalogs to it. HBO's Max is quickly catching up on the sensational documentaries, while Lifetime has its own slew of movies based on these documentaries. Live TV streaming services aren't completely out of the picture either as they make it a point to include channels like True Crime Network and Law & Crime in their respective lineups. 

Below, we round up the best streaming services that true crime fans should watch out for. The list includes both on-demand and live TV streamers. 

Nothing gets the blood pumping more than a good ol' action movie. With heists, car chases, fast draws, and showdowns aplenty, it's the kind of watch that will leave you wanting more. So if you're wondering where you can get your ass-kicking fix, we've got you covered: we've rounded up the best streaming services for watching action movies below.

Each of these streamers has its own strengths, of course. For instance, as the home of Marvel and Star Wars, Disney+ is your go-to for franchise blockbusters. Cinemax and Max are your best bets when it comes to traditional action movies, while Mubi and Hi-YAH! are where you'll find martial arts and other Asian combat films. Read on to see our full list of the best streaming services for action films. 

With the likes of Star Wars, Star Trek, and Doctor Who dominating TV screens, it's clear that sci-fi isn't the niche enterprise it once was. It makes sense, then, that plenty of streaming services have carved out a space for it. Among the major streamers, Amazon Prime seems to be the most interested in the genre as it produces shows like The Peripheral, The Expanse, Paper Girls, and Night Sky on the regular. Meanwhile, Netflix has Black Mirror, Disney has Star Wars, and Paramount+ has Star Trek. 

Live TV streaming services aren't missing out as well since a number of them include the premier sci-fi channel SYFY in their lineups. This channel alone is home to hundreds of sci-fi content, both licensed and original. Below, we list the best streaming services, on-demand and live, for science-fiction fans.

Ever since Netflix announced it would be cracking down on password sharing, other streaming services have followed suit by testing to see how far they can go with restrictions. While Netflix might charge $3 to users who are not part of the same household, Disney+ has rolled out surveys gauging reactions about a possibly similar crackdown. Other streamers have just made the deed difficult from the get-go, such as Amazon linking a Prime Video account to one person's credit card, Apple TV+ requiring an Apple ID during login, and Hulu allowing only two simultaneous streams. 

Password sharing has yet to be strictly banned, but with streaming services moving this way, it's not far off to imagine such a future. That said, we decided to look up streamers that have been relatively lax about the topic. As far as we know, they haven't done or said anything about the matter, so it might be a while before they go through measures like the ones above. So without further ado, here are the best streaming services that haven't banned account sharing...yet.

Comedy fans will be glad to know that there are plenty of streaming services, each with its own niche, that cater to this genre. Thanks to its Warner Bros. and Turner backing, Max (formerly HBO Max) is home to comedy classics like Caddyshack and The Graduate, while Peacock is your go-to for more modern fare like Bridesmaids and American Pie. Genteel family-friendly comedies can be found at Disney+, of course, while indies and dramedies are housed at the much edgier Hulu and Apple TV+. Meanwhile, for fresh comic voices, you can always check out Netflix and its ever-growing lineup of stand-up specials. 

We've looked it up and gathered the best streaming services for comedy movies. Read on to see our full list, then weigh out your options with the specs we included below.
