I cancelled the moment they put ads in the plan I had been paying for. Don’t miss it for a second. Not even prime shipping.

I'll be quitting after my wife finishes her series. I had noticed it is getting worse. Plus, unless I screwed up somehow, that $2.99 no-adverts charge appeared without any action on our part. We cancelled and went back to the cheaper version. It really bugs me that a company making money hand over fist finds it necessary to fuck their customers over unless they pay even more.

And I double my piracy. Checkmate, corporations.

That's why I cancelled my Prime subscription. After that, Amazon randomly re started my Prime subscription, twice; that's why I deleted my Amazon account.

+100% ads --> -100% amazon purchases

Glad I cancelled Prime some time ago. Haven't missed it and I usually get free shipping anyway by buying elsewhere. I'll even pay more to avoid Amazon.

Are you me? (I don't mean name wise)

I find it hard to get too upset about this since Prime Video is just a throw-in bonus that I'm not paying for. Even if it didn't exist I'd still be subscribed to Amazon Prime. The only thing I really used Prime Video for, even when it didn't have ads, was to find movies to add to Overseerr.
