There is no change to the current price of your Prime membership. We will also offer a new ad-free option for an additional $2.99 per month* that you can sign up for here.

Then there is a price change you damn dimwit, you just gave the shitty tier the same pricing as the old normal tier, and amped up the normal tier by $3.00. I absolutely hate the wording for this, you just know it was to be able to not release the ad membership at a lower price.

We have prime because we order enough through Amazon that the 'free' shipping we pay for is still a good deal. If I don't watch any Amazon video anymore, that's fine. And I don't plan to if there are commercials.

If the price was slightly higher and it'd remove ads on twitch, I might buy it

Other than Good Omens, and Grand Tour I guess, what's even on Prime Video that's not elsewhere?

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I really liked Uploaded. Guess it's getting downloaded. And not from Amazon.

I've already canceled my Amazon prime subscription. I'm just waiting for it to expire in March

Presently, every time i dive into az video i find nothing and that my time spent was in vain... so now they want me to pay even more for this added misery? Easy decision... I'm out.

I only watched grand tour anyway, but I can't cancel it since my mother loves the frees shipping.

Fortunately a VPN is like 30 quid a year. Jellyfin and Radarr are my jam now.

I've kept Netflix and Disney+ for now. I was looking to cancel one for a while, and Amazon made that an easy choice. There's fucking nothing on it at the best of times.
