One good thing about not having a zillion streaming subscriptions is that it takes me back to a time when we simply turned the TV off if nothing good was on. Putting limitations on consumption doesn’t always have to be restrictive, it can open up new opportunities and be joyous.
Scam comment just below- not sure if the reporting button worked. Pretending to be you and trying to get me to message someone ele for a financial scam.
I'm not sure how common it is for libraries to have these subscriptions through Libby, but I also use it for magazines: the New Yorker, and cooking magazines (you can set up an alert on the app for when a new issue comes online). Since they're pdfs rather than web-format versions of the magazines, for some magazines I find it more readable to open Libby on my computer rather than in the app on my phone.

So true! Incredible how much time I've reclaimed by turning off the TV when nothing good is on.
Hoopla from your library is another place to get movies, tv shows, books, audiobooks, and music! And my library has DVDs to check out, too.
Great rec, thank you!

Looks like it worked! I don’t even see it. Thank you!
I love it when one of my holds comes in on Libby. Such a wonderful surprise!
