Templates and footage for video editors
Motion Array sells the things a video editor runs out of mid-project: Premiere and After Effects templates, presets, LUTs, stock footage and music, on one licence that covers commercial work. The plugins are the part regular users say they would miss. Buying it by category is cheaper than the Everything plan and worse value the moment you need two categories.

Unlimited stock downloads on one subscription
Storyblocks charges a flat subscription and lets you download as much as you want, which is the opposite of the credit model everywhere else and much easier to budget against. Footage, music, images and templates all sit under the same plan. The library is smaller than Shutterstock's and you notice it on anything specific.
