For the same price, you could buy so much else. For example, an old but still usable office PC. Every year.
I can buy PC for 12 USD? That's a totally crazy idea.
For that much for sure I can't buy many games, access to numerous movies and TV shows, additional Twitch sub and I don't know what else they have. Frankly the Amazon store is the least important thing to me in this package.
Oddly enough I still might not get it, as that company definitely has become pretty fucky.
$140. I said every year, not every month.
I swear to God I'm losing it... It cost for me 12 USD per year in Poland.
Am I looking at the wrong thing?
I forgot to consider the price could be different outside of the US.
That's not different, that's ludicrous. I don't understand.
Americans have more propensity to consume than Poles. Amazon sees this and prices accordingly to maximize profit. It's the same reason why games were sold in Argentina for $5 when they were $60 in the US.
