I think I might cancel. I'm not watching ads and I'm not going to pay the extra $3/mo to opt out. I don't know if I'd end up paying more than the subscription cost in shipping though....

What the hell do people watch on prime? I got it for Thursday night football. There’s nothing interesting on there and half the content is “rent/buy”
You mean rent for x amount of time, or rent for an undetermined amount of time.
We don't do 'buy' anymore, that's just rent without knowing when your rental is over.
Physical media is the only "buy". And that's hard to come by. Unfortunately.
You could say that lately the trend has been "bye bye buy"
Get out. ->
Lmfao
But sadly yeso
Edited
prime has some really good shows (invincible, the boys, and good omens are the ones i've watched) but ultimately it is WAY too expensive
The Boys, Expanse, Invincible, Wheel of Time, Lord of the Rings, Fleabag, Good Omens, Man in the High Tower and Reached come to mind. Admittedly, I haven't watched a few of those.
It still has a better selection than Netflix.
And Usenet has a better selection than both combined, for cheaper and a better experience.
Half? That's optimistic.
