If you have multiple video streaming services in Canada you’ll know how costly it’s getting to subscribe to them all.
In the past few months Netflix Canada, Crave and Prime Video Canada have all changed or increased the cost of their ad-free streaming plans. When you include Disney+ Canada, Apple TV+ and Paramount+ Canada, it’ll now cost you $86.95, plus tax, to subscribe to all six basic ad-free streaming options each month.
If you’re trying to lower your monthly spending by cutting some of these services, JustWatch.com have compiled a list using data from their site to determine which streaming service in Canada offers the most movies and TV shows to watch per $1 spent on a basic ad-free subscription plan.
Leading the charge is Prime Video Canada, which just increased their ad-free plan to $12.99 per month. They offer 839 titles per $1 spent, almost double what Netflix Canada offers and over three times what Disney+ Canada offer, according to the JustWatch data.
Coming in second is Netflix Canada. For their monthly basic ad-free subscription price of $16.49, they offer 419 titles per $1 spent. This is more content than Disney+ Canada, Crave, Paramount+ Canada and Apple TV+ combined.
Disney+ Canada comes in third. Their ad-free plan of $11.99 per month works out to 236 movies and TV shows per $1 spent.
Rounding out the list in order of best to worst are Paramount+ Canada ($9.99 per month and 92 titles per $1 spent), Crave ($22 per month and 71 titles per $1 spent), and Apple TV+ ($12.99 per month and 17 titles per $1 spent).
This doesn’t take into account quality over quantity, which some might argue Apple TV+ or Crave win at (Prime Video Canada does have two big Oscar contenders streaming this month though, so they’re not lacking in quality either).
If you are really trying to save money each month by cutting back on subscription services there are plenty of great free streaming video services in Canada to check out.
