This is why even though I pay for prime, I pirate everything. It's amusing to pay for a service that your experience is better pirating than using the service you pay for.
Same. It's nice to pick your own media player and use upscaling as much as you want to
dude uses linux but pays for prime you cant make this shit up
Prime primarly has nothing to do with software. It's a delivery service.
Dude doesn't know what Amazon Prime is for, you can't make this shit up
Are you unaware of the shipping with prime? I didn't buy it for the video lol.
Just pirate better shipping times 5 head
I pay for prime for the shipping advantages. I barely ever watch it, no way could I justify having it for just the streaming services.
Primes shipping advantages are 100% hit or miss. They no longer honor delivery estimates. In tgier efforts to save a buck, they implement private shipping companies that send your shit half way around the world and back, when your item started 100 miles away. I'd say about ~50% of my prime orders take 8-10 days when they advertise 2 days. I bitch, and they keep moving the goalpost, changing thier promises. Over and over. And, prices now are on par with so many other sellers. There is very little reason to continue using Amazon.
