Summer in Gaithersburg, Maryland is the perfect time of year to stay inside your apartment and stream an evening or weekend of entertainment via your TV. But which streaming service will best meet your needs? Today, we’ve got information on several options to share with members of our community at Park Station.

Streaming Services

According to Tom’s Guide, the top three streaming services are Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Instant Video, with Netflix being lauded as the best overall, Hulu filling the bill for Network TV, and Amazon is great for families. A couple of other notable mentions include Vevo for Music Fans.

Netflix has come up with some original series which have claimed significant followings including Orange is the New Black, Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life, Stranger Things, and Marvel’s Luke Cage.

Amazon Prime is a cost-effective way not only to shop for physical goods, but virtual ones as well, providing streaming services of movie, classics, and TV. If you’re a fan of comedy, this may be your streaming service of choice.

Hulu is an excellent choice to stay current with the latest TV shows without forking out the $$$ for cable TV. Additionally, if you are a fan of British TV, Hulu Plus is the best place to get BBC content in the United States. A bonus is the selection of classic anime series.
