The Best Video Streaming Service Deals For November 2024 (2024)

Hulu

Hulu has expanded its library and features greatly since it debuted in 2007. The service offers a standard, stand alone subscription for $9.99/month with ads with loads of originals, movies, and shows. That’s just the beginning. You can select a no ad feature for $18.99/month, or for $59.99 you get live TV, Disney+, and ESPN+. That’s not all, you can select a Hulu/Disney+ bundle with ads ($10.99/month), a Hulu/Disney+/ESPN+ bundle ($16.99/month), or a Hulu/Disney+/Max bundle ($16.99/month). There are eight Hulu bundle options to explore, which is the most. It’s why our senior analyst, Jordan Minor, praised the app in his review, saying, “Hulu is an excellent choice for its combination of on-demand content and live TV.”

Max

In addition to the aforementioned bundle of Max/Hulu/Disney+ for $16.99/month (with ads), Max offers a simpler stand alone service ($9.99/month) and a tiered monthly ($9.99-20.99) or yearly payment ($99.99-$209.99) option for their bundles. Keep in mind the prices will vary if you want to have ads or not (yes, every streaming service offers ads or no ads at a higher cost). There’s also a 50% off special discount for students. The thing that sets Max apart is its premium content. It’s the only place to stream TV classics like The Wire, The Sopranos, Game of Thrones, and current TV hits like The Penguin, House of the Dragon, and Hacks. When you throw in live sports, CNN, and Discovery programming, it’s why Jordan Minor and Ben Moore gave it an "Excellent" rating in our review, praising the service’s deep library of content.

Peacock

The NBC Universal streaming service stands out as it offers one of the lowest priced subscriptions starting at $7.99/month with ads. You can go ad-free for nearly double the price, $13.99/month while yearly plans are priced out for 10 months—meaning you can save, yay! Peacock is the home to NBC’s classic sitcoms like The Office, and other favorites like Yellowstone (which is inexplicably also available on Paramount+). Peacock also has a slew of live sports, including Premier League, Big Ten Football and exclusive rights to WWE’s live events. That’s why we gave it the Editors' Choice award in our review where Jordan Minor and Ben Moore touted Peacock's “substantive library and support for HD content."

Paramount+

In terms of bundles and offers, Paramount+ has the least, but that doesn’t mean it has less content! You can enjoy Paramount with ads for $7.99/month or $59.99/year. This offer features some live sports, like NFL and UEFA Champions League. The only other option is a Paramount+ bundle with Showtime for $12.99/month or $119.99/year. This offers an ad-free option (except for live TV), and everything under the Showtime banner including hit series like Dexter, Ray Donovan, The L Word, and so much more. The key to Paramount+ is its lack of top tier programming option. As Jordan Minor and Ben Moore said in our review, the app, “Offers popular original shows and live sports at a reasonable price, but you must pay for its most expensive tier to enjoy the best features.” Finally, Paramount+ will be the streaming home of the Super Bowl until 2028 and possibly beyond that.

ESPN+

When cord cutters were jumping ship in the early 2010s, established cable networks like ESPN were stuck because they thrived on having exclusive rights to broadcast live sports on their channels. To become a streaming service, ESPN had to reinvent the wheel for themselves. While ESPN+ offers many exclusive sports, notably College Football, F1, and UFC, it doesn’t stream the sports they don’t currently have a contract with so that includes (as of this writing) NASCAR, NBA, and most NFL games, just to name a few. While the streaming quality is outstanding, ESPN+ does have originals like 30 For 30, but overall it lacks the the flagship programming you want like SportsCenter, according to our experts Jordan Minor and Ben Moore said in their ESPN+ review. At it's usual price of $11.99/month, or $119.99/year, it’s a better deal to get this service bundled with Hulu or Disney+ instead on its own.

Disney+

My kids second favorite streaming platform is also one that offers a variety of plans. Like Hulu, Disney+, offers the bundles mentioned previously and more. You can buy a duo option of Disney+& Hulu for $10.99/month or a duo of Max & Disney+ for $19.99/month, both with ad-free options, a trio bundle of those three platforms all together, or a trio of Hulu, Disney+ and ESPN+ with ad-free options. Either way you’re looking at a range of $11-$27/month. And you get Disney+ on its own for $9.99, but it’s better in a bundle. The key to Disney+ is its vast library of Disney films and series, animated and live action. Our analysts Jordan Minor and Ben Moore gave it an "Excellent" rating in our review, praising the service’s “vast entertainment catalog.” Disney+ is loaded with hours of entertainment from Marvel, Star Wars, the current Doctor Who series. When you throw new exclusive films like The Taylor Swift Eras Tour, Hamilton, The Beatles: Get Back, and a slew of new original series like The Mandalorian, Disney+ is a top level streaming platform.

Prime Video

Automatically included with your Amazon Prime subscription, Prime Video is a wild card. Filled with incredible original series like The Boys, Fleabag, Invincible, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, The Rings of Power, Fallout, Mr. and Mrs. Smith, and so many more, Prime is constantly delivering surprise hits. Plus, Prime Video has original films, with some of the biggest Hollywood stars in them, including Oscar-nominated films like American Fiction, One Night In Miami, and Sound of Metal. in addition to a library of license series and films, you can rent or buy anything within the Prime library, something no other streaming service offers. Prime also has live sports, notably, Thursday Night Football, so there's something for everyone. You can get all of that entertainment, and free two day shipping! Of course, you can sign up to Prime without the merchant side component for just $8.99/month. In our review, our experts Minor and Moore called Prime Video, "a great value for its combination of a vast on-demand library and live TV capabilities."
