Zero rn, but might be getting Amazon Prime soon.
I been battling with my wife about cancelling prime. If we didn't have a child on the way it would be a no brainer.
The overnight delivery is nice but more often than not it's actually two day shipping. Their delivery times have been so unreliable that I'm actually convinced they just blatantly lie to get you to buy a preferred product regardless of how long it will actually take to get it to you.
Evidently there are ads now for their programming. I didn't have prime for the streaming but it was the only source of classic Christmas movies this holiday, right up until they cut away mid sentence for 5 minutes of unskippable ads. I almost cancelled it right then.
uBlock Origin is your friend
Yea, would've canceled prime if not for the rapid delivery. I do notice that the delivery times have stretched out to 2 days.
can't comment on Prime video, since i don't use it much, but i don think the ads in a paid service is a pretty scummy thing to do.
The main driving force for me to cancel is mostly the way they treat their workers, but the sad thing is that it seems that dependency on amazon is gone up nowadays, with most malls/ stores closing (Fry's Electronics is one that I can name off the top of my head)
