Amazon Prime... [View all]

Received this over the weekend and am sick of the greed. I enjoy streaming services because I don't like commercials, so now I don't have a choice unless I want to spend even more money? Grrr... I am seriously considering canceling this service if I can figure out how. If I absolutely need something from Amazon, I can get it by other means.

Dear Prime member,

We are writing to you today about an upcoming change to your Prime Video experience. Starting January 29, Prime Video movies and TV shows will include limited advertisements. This will allow us to continue investing in compelling content and keep increasing that investment over a long period of time. We aim to have meaningfully fewer ads than linear TV and other streaming TV providers. No action is required from you, and there is no change to the current price of your Prime membership. We will also offer a new ad-free option for an additional $2.99 per month* that you can sign up for here.
