Frequently Asked Questions about Streaming

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 most is not the total number, but how many relevant top series are available – see the "Series in Top 250" column.

Which streaming service offers the best value for money?

Disney+ and Netflix with ads currently offer the best value for money in Germany. Prime Video is often already included in the 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 with 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. This way you can instantly see which top series are available on your provider.
