I also despise all these streaming services. It was predicted years ago by a tech journalist (don't recall who), as network speeds got faster and faster and the price when down that ultimately exclusive content would be the thing that would be charged for. I'm a big enough Star Trek fan that I've signed up for CBS All Access but as soon as Picard is done I'll cancel. I watched all of Star Trek Discovery by waiting until it was completely released and then signing up for the week trial and binging it all.
The show itself so far has been excellent. A few cringe worthy lines have made their way in, but it's just enough nostalgia and some amazing new additions to the universe. Loving it.
