Wasted $50 on a crunchyroll subscription I barely used

I signed up for Crunchyroll last month thinking I'd finally catch up on all the big shonen shows everyone talks about. Paid for the premium tier at like $10 a month and then realized I only watched like 3 episodes of Jujutsu Kaisen over the whole month. The rest of the time I just scrolled through the catalog and felt overwhelmed by the choices. I ended up canceling after the first billing cycle and now I'm just back to watching stuff on free sites. Has anyone else paid for a streaming service and then realized they just don't have the attention span for it?

I get what you're saying but I think you're looking at it wrong. Ten bucks a month is basically nothing for a whole library of shows, even if you only watch a couple episodes. I've had mine for two years now and sometimes I go weeks without touching it, but then I'll binge something for a weekend and it pays for itself. You just can't expect to get full value out of it every single month.

Honestly that's the whole thing with these services. People act like you need to be glued to it every single day to get your money's worth. I've had months where I barely touched Netflix then suddenly watched like three seasons of some random show in a week. That's still cheaper than going to the movies once or buying a single digital season for 20 bucks.
