Chances are you’re already familiar with most of the names on this list, but it’s by no means comprehensive. There are many other ways to stream and hundreds of other options available. We say so Check out these particular streaming optionswe keep a few things in mind.

This list is ordered based on the numerical value I assigned to each streaming service in their individual review, which I determined by design (ie ease of use on different TV and mobile platforms), features (such as 4K HDR, mobile downloads, recommendations, watch list and number of streams), content (frequency and number of shows and quality of originals and back catalogs) and other things (price compared to it). We stream with Roku stick, smart TV, Apple TV box, mobile phone, tablet and Fire TV stick.

Each platform offers the same basic features on the home screen, and we found that HBO Max, Disney Plus and Hulu excel with dedicated hubs and collections, while Netflix’s recommendation lines for current, old and future selections combined and based on genre organization are superior. Subtle features are also a plus, such as the ability to share titles via text from HBO Max and Netflix, or Netflix’s ‘Moments’ feature which allows you to save scenes from your favorite titles. We also measure ad time on ad-based plans and look for glitches during playback. See reviews of each service for full details.
