Apple TV Plus is a unique beast in the VOD streaming jungle. Built almost exclusively on original programming like The Morning Show, Bad Sisters, and Severance, with only a handful of licensed titles compared to Netflix's hundreds. Subsequently, it has a slender content library, but it only costs $6.99 a month. And that's not the only way it differs to many of the top streaming services – there's also a generous Apple TV Plus free trial available.
- Apple TV Plus free trial: sign up now try for 7 days
You heard right – what is already a hugely affordable streaming service also allows new subscribers free rein of the platform for 7 days (or 3 months in some instances). This means complimentary access to critically acclaimed Golden Globe-nominated movies and TV shows like Ted Lasso, with all titles promising a burgeoning line-up of A-list talent. This makes it one of the best streaming services out there.

If you’re studying at a degree-granting university or college, all your entertainment dreams have come true. Not only does a subscription to the Apple Music student plan mean paying $5.99 rather than $10.99 a month, but Apple TV Plus is thrown in at no extra charge for a limited time.
