As if the Prime Video app couldn't get any worse.

Just cancelled my prime today. I don't watch the video, just use it for delivery

It said "But you've save €247 with your prime account since the start!"

Over the last six years I've paid about €270 for the prime subscription

Fuck off Amazon

    Only reason I still have prime is simple - diapers. I save enough on them alone to justify it. But once that's done (another year-ish), I don't think it will be worth it anymore.

    And yet, I still don't use prime video. It's just not a good experience, and obviously getting worse. And as I have kids, the management of what I'm ok with them seeing is way easier on JF than prime video.

    Why not Costco instead? It's $65 for a year, and you'd probably make that up on diapers alone in that first year. You need to actually go pick them up so it wouldn't work if you don't live near a Costco.

    There are also other bulk stores as well, depending on your area. Look around, Amazon is rarely the best price, they're just the most convenient since they have pretty much everything.
