Frequently Asked Questions
Which streaming service has the most series?
Netflix offers the largest catalog with around 3,000 series, followed by Prime Video and MagentaTV. What matters more than total numbers is how many relevant top series are available – see the "Series in Top 250" column for that.
Which streaming service offers the best value for money?
Disney+ and Netflix with ads currently offer the best value in Germany. Prime Video is often already included in an Amazon Prime subscription. HBO Max impresses with a smaller catalog but very high series quality.
What is the difference between an ad-supported plan and a regular plan?
With an ad-supported plan, short ad breaks are shown during streaming (approx. 4–8 minutes per hour). In return, the price is significantly lower. Downloads are usually not available on ad-supported plans.
How do I find the best series for my service?
Use our Series Charts and filter by your streaming service and genre. You can instantly see which top series are available on your provider.
How often is the comparison data updated?
We review prices and catalog data regularly. Since streaming services change their offerings continuously, individual values may vary slightly. You can report any errors via the link below.
