I'm not really into watching videos, as I haven't done that since the days of Cbt Nuggets around 10-15 years ago. I usually prefer reading physical books, but it looks like those are becoming outdated, especially for IT topics. I'm considering a subscription to either Udemy or Pluralsight and want to know which platform offers the best virtual labs and simulations. I'm particularly interested in options that let you try things out without having to deal with licensing fees or computing costs. Are there any other platforms that might be better?

I've gotta be honest, Pluralsight has dropped the ball for me recently. I went through all the material for the AZ-140, and I felt seriously underprepared for the exam. Definitely wouldn’t recommend it if you’re looking for solid practice.
Have you looked into Skillsoft? They provide hands-on labs and Skillable Challenge Labs. I'm not sure about subscription types, but it could be an interesting alternative to check out!
If you’re okay with YouTube, I highly recommend checking out John Savill's channel. He focuses on exam prep and provides updates on Azure weekly. It might give you some good insights!
I hear you on the virtual labs! They really do help with learning, especially if you’re diving into cloud migrations and VM setups. If you find anything worthwhile, please share!

You did what? Going through all that and still feeling unprepared sounds frustrating!
