Streaming services have almost come full circle: What started as a cheap alternative to cable TV has now become an expensive cultural staple in its own right, as price hikes and crackdowns on password sharing have made keeping multiple streaming services just as expensive, if not more so, than most conventional cable plans. Luckily, there are often discounts, deals, and loopholes to exploit that can make streaming more affordable—and sometimes even free.
