Yeah, same here, though I think I’ll be reevaluating the true utility of Prime next time the subscription is up for renewal since Prime delivery tends to mean “sometimes in the next week” now rather than the original two days.
I know I for one only have ever taken advantage of the shipping benefits. That alone makes the 120$/year worth it for me. Anything else is just cherries on top lmao
In one sense it’s like getting a streaming service for $3 a month.
In another sense, it’s like the prime value proposition is starting to crumble. I got it for the shipping but the video was nice and music was discounted and pretty good.
It def feels like these companies are turning the screws because they know they can get away with it. And on principle that bothers me, but I’m also torn because I want to pay for content I like (and don’t want ad supported media).
I got an eye patch laying around here somewhere. I might have to dust it off. It’s been 15 years since I wore it.
Yeah it’s a weird position to be in. I’ll be paying for the service but pirating the few shows I watch.
Probably more common than you might think

I’m planning to do the same thing with Paramount+ (got it free with Walmart+)
