Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, Amazon Prime… The list of online video services keeps growing, with shows increasingly being siloed within their own service, requiring one to subscribe to multiple services to get access to shows you want to watch. Does this remind anyone of cable TV where you need to subscribe to different packages? Or is it not as bad? I subscribe to Netflix and Amazon Prime but I think it might make more sense to cycle through different services every few months to get access to more shows while keeping fees reasonable. What online video services do you subscribe to?
1954 Trinity Ave, Walnut Creek
Last year, we saw the progress on the Three by Lenox Homes condo complex in downtown Walnut Creek and they are now available for purchase, “priced from the $1,288,000 – $2,400,000’s”. Check out the floor plans and more here. I checked out the inside and the condos look sweet, with a cool rooftop deck that can be reserved. Penthouse owners have their own private rooftop deck section as well. I really like this location where you can walk to BART in 5-10 minutes, with Lesher Center, restaurants and shopping down the other block as well.
