Streaming services
In the US you can choose between on-demand libraries — Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, HBO Max, Peacock, Paramount+, Prime Video and Apple TV — and live TV services like YouTube TV.

AI subscriptions
AI assistants in the US come with a free tier and one or more paid plans. ChatGPT, Claude and Google AI are general assistants, Perplexity is built around research and answers with sources, and Midjourney generates images and video. The price list rarely tells you the most important thing — how much you can actually use.
Perplexity
from $20.00/mo
Plus sales tax where applicable
There’s also a free plan
VPN services
VPN prices in the US are almost always shown as a monthly figure for a long plan — and that figure only holds for the first term. Before you compare, look at the renewal price, how many devices you can connect, how long the money-back window is and whether sales tax is added at checkout.

Gaming subscriptions
Gaming subscriptions in the US are tied to your platform: Game Pass for Xbox and PC, PlayStation Plus for PlayStation, Nintendo Switch Online for Switch, and EA Play across several. Each has tiers — the cheapest usually covers online play, higher ones add a library of games, classics or cloud streaming.
Nintendo Switch Online
from $19.99/yr
Plus sales tax where applicable
Cloud storage
Most people already have some free cloud storage — 15 GB with Google, 5 GB with Apple and Microsoft. Paid plans add space, family sharing and extras such as Office apps or a VPN. The right choice depends mostly on which phone and apps you already use.

Online courses
Learning subscriptions in the US split into three groups: course libraries with certificates (Coursera Plus), coding and data platforms (Codecademy, DataCamp) and language apps (Duolingo, Busuu). Most have a free tier, and most are much cheaper per month when you pay for a year.
Fitness apps
Fitness and wellness subscriptions in the US cover very different needs: tracking runs and rides (Strava), logging food (MyFitnessPal), training indoors (Zwift) and meditation and sleep (Headspace). Almost all have a free tier or a free trial, and the annual plan is usually far cheaper per month — but trial and refund rules differ between monthly and annual.
Strava Premium
from $11.99/mo
Plus sales tax where applicable
Free trial — 30 days
MyFitnessPal
from $19.99/mo
Plus sales tax where applicable

Antivirus software
Antivirus in the US is sold as a yearly subscription, and most providers advertise a discounted first year. The number that matters is the renewal price — plus how many devices you cover, what’s included beyond antivirus, and how long you have to change your mind.
Bitdefender
from $109.99/yr
Plus sales tax where applicable
Free trial — 30 days
