After years of waiting, Stranger Things' fifth and final season is here, but I think I'll be holding off on watching, and not just for its odd release schedule.

Netflix's Standard subscription recently increased to AU$20.99 per month (as reported by Tom's Guide), while its premium subscription sets customers back a whopping AU$28.99 p/m – but the king of streaming can do what it wants.

Wondering what to watch on each service? Apple TV has top-tier content of every kind, including comedy series like The Studio and Shrinking, and edge-of-your-seat drama in the form of Slow Horses, Black Bird, and Presumed Innocent. However, it really excels in sci-fi, with series like For All Mankind, Severance, Silo, and the currently-running Pluribus.

If you're just going to enjoy a one-month stint with Binge for a gold coin, it's hard to recommend anything other than All Her Fault. It features an all-star cast, including Sara Snook (Succession) and Dakota Fanning (Ripley), and follows the world-crushing moments immediately following a child's disappearance.

Last, but certainly not least, Disney+ has a vast, Netflix-like library that accounts for any need. The highlights are live US sport and the entire Marvel, Star Wars, Disney, and Pixar libraries. However, new this month are The Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Taylor Swift's The End of an Era and The Eras Tour: The Final Show. And, perhaps most importantly, the second season of Percy Jackson and the Olympians.
