A quick look at CuriosityStream – Pros and Cons

Pros:
Excellent selection of science documentaries – If you love science-related subject matter, this is a perfect service for your streaming budget.
Available worldwide – While the content may vary from country to country, most places in the world can sign up and access the service.
Price is reasonable
Has solid tech features – The service includes support for downloading content to mobile devices, 4K support, and parental controls.

4K support costs much more – If you want 4K resolution content on your big screen TV, be prepared to pay a lot more for that privilege for that service.
