Steaming is certainly better than broadcast from a convenience standpoint. I don't use either. Although I do subscribe to HBO Now to watch GOT and West World when their seasons are concluded. I liked Netflix for awhile. After I watched all the Star Trek, Futurama, was into House of Cards (until it got lame, prior to the allegations), I'm probably forgetting some content, but there just wasn't anything left of interest for me.
The first season of House of Cards was one of the best tv series I had seen. It rivals seeing the first season of 24 in real time back in the day. They both plateaued early unfortunately.
The first season was great. Once the Underwoods were in the White House the show really lost it's edge. It didn't have anywhere to go and it was painful melodrama.
Surely Netflix is pushing an agenda, but they still suck less than traditional TV
