Is Crave worth it in Canada if I already have Netflix?

Yes—Crave can be worth adding in Canada if you specifically want HBO/Max-style prestige series, newer studio movies, Showtime/Starz-type add-ons, Canadian content, or current-season premium dramas that Netflix often doesn’t carry. If you mostly watch Netflix originals, international shows, reality TV, documentaries, anime, or kids/family content, Netflix alone is probably enough.

Best practical answer: subscribe to Crave for 1–2 months when there are several shows or movies you want, then cancel. It is less compelling as a permanent second subscription unless you regularly watch premium cable-style series and movies.

Choose Crave if you want:

• HBO/Max-associated shows and prestige dramas/comedies
• A stronger premium-movie rotation than Netflix, depending on the month
• Canadian access to shows that may be on HBO/Max in the U.S.
• Occasional event-style viewing, like a major series season

Stick with Netflix if you want:

• Bigger all-around library depth
• More international originals and bingeable series
• Better family/kids breadth for many households
• One simple default service with frequent new releases

My recommendation: keep Netflix as your base service, add Crave only when its current lineup has at least 3–5 things you know you’ll watch that month. Before subscribing, verify the current Crave plan price, whether ads apply, included channels/add-ons, device limits, and whether the exact shows you want are still available.
