Beware. Rant to follow. Here is why I am cancelling Amazon Prime. Last year I got Amazon Prime. There were two reasons. Let me clue you in, Amazon. The shipping alone isn’t enough. You would have to buy a ton for that to make sense. But you throw in a Netflix like service. Well. Now you’re talking. Today I was checking my bank account and I got hit with $85.52. Would have been nice to get a warning email. But of course if they had done that, I might have cancelled. If I order something I get three emails. But Amazon Prime renews and nothing. Fuckers. Here’s the thing. I can now watch HBO, Netflix, YouTube, Hulu (not that I subscribe, but it is available if I wanted to), MLB (don’t subscribe to that either), and now as of this week Vevo. Why not Amazon? I freaking pay for it! I should get it everywhere I want. I shouldn’t have to watch it on my freaking laptop. That’s stupid. I tried mirroring from my iPad to my TV and it said my device isn’t supported. But who wants to do that anyway? So why the Apple hate, Amazon? Are you saying I have to buy some other device to watch Amazon Prime on my TV, because I’m not doing that. And if I can’t watch Amazon Prime, it’s as good as not having it. So you just lost a customer. I don’t buy enough to warrant the free shipping and truly it is barely worth it considering how few titles you have. Anyway, that’s why I’m cancelling Amazon Prime. Let me know if things change.
