What's your favourite TV and film streaming platform?
The government look set to rollback on a planned content fee that would hike the price of streaming services.
NETFLIX, APPLE TV, HAYU – there’s plenty to choose from when it comes to streaming TV and films nowadays.
And while the individual subscriptions may not break the bank, when you add a few together, it all adds up.
Ireland’s Minister for Arts Patrick O’Donovan is apparently acutely aware of this and has decided not to go ahead with a planned content levy on streaming services in a bid to keep costs down.
“Whether it’s the RTÉ television license or whether it’s the subscription to Rakuten or Netflix or Disney, quite frankly, [people] are paying enough,” he told RTÉ earlier today.
So we want to know: What is your favourite streaming service?
