I would prefer this if they made the core shipping product (the only part I actually care about) cheaper. I’ve never liked their bundled approach. But it looks like they’re just going to increase the cost of everything else instead.
Comment on Amazon Prime Video drops Dolby Vision and Atmos unless you pay extra

Mark my words…Amazon is going to start tiering off programs like cable. Want “The Boys?” or “Invincible?” That’s the extra tier.

Samesies. Didn’t give two shits when they bundled Amazon prime with video and such. Easy decision of my digital existence was dropping prime soon as they announced the ads and tiered payments.

I would prefer they brought back the actual shipping part. Not this $169/yr for “best effort 3-10 days depending on our mood” they want me to pay for.

Probably. The industry is still trying to figure out pricing, and the cost of making content isn’t matching the cost consumers are willing to pay for it.

no one wants exclusive content, it’s inherently harder to generate a buzz and make the series feel worthwhile or pressing to watch

Who still want Invincible? The wait for season2 was so long and we only got few crappy episodes. What a letdown.

Season 2 has been excellent so far.
I do agree waiting 2 years for 4 episodes, then 5 months for 4 more episodes is a huge let down.

Not sure if that counts, but they bought MGM and they’ve made an MGM+ channel that you can subscribe to for 5€/month, but only if you are a Prime subscriber aswell

I don’t think so…I was not talking about Prime originals

Meanwhile, I’m over here, keeping my money and watching whatever TF I want in higher def and no ads — for free. Fuck you, Amazon.
