I looked into it.
Here's what I found.

Most comparison sites tell you what converts well. That's not the same as what's worth keeping. These pages are about the second thing.

I earn commission on some of these. It's disclosed. The ranking isn't affected.

What I've looked at so far

Streaming services

You probably don't need all of them. You might not need most of them.

VPN services

Three of the most popular ones share a parent company. Most people don't know that.

Cloud storage

The encryption they advertise isn't the same as the encryption that protects you from them.

Telecom & mobile carriers

The brands that look like competitors often share a parent company, the same towers, and the same bill.

Music streaming

Spotify raised its price three times in three years. The others didn't. Worth knowing.

Most people use the same password everywhere. The other option is paying someone to remember them for you. There's a free one.

You're probably paying for a tier you don't need.

How this works

Most comparison sites rank services based on who pays the most commission. The "best VPN" is whoever converts at the highest rate.

I earn commission from some services listed here — it's disclosed on every page. A service doesn't get a better write-up because it pays well, and it doesn't get a worse one because it doesn't have an affiliate programme. Some of the services I recommend don't have one at all.

The question I'm trying to answer is simpler than that: is this worth keeping?
