After being one of the earliest users of Amazon Prime and nearly 18 years later this is the first year we are debating doing away with it. I am not sure we get THAT much value out of 139 bucks a year. Feels like we could just do with a monthly membership during key seasons (thanksgiving/christmas or a famous show on prime) and be done with it. Its sad because if you look at Bezos’s philosophy it was to make Prime a no brainer for anyone to sign up for – you should get so much value out of it that its a no-brainer, and yet over the years it has only become less valuable. You get fast shipping yes, but you are pretty much paying for grocery delivery, the prime music is shit, prime video does not have a great catalog enough to subscribe a full year but you get ads yay, and like everything is like nickel-diming. I’d gladly play 249-299$ a year on Amazon prime if it simply included Grocery/Photos/Video/Ring/Blink/Music/Alexa+ all in one big package. As a standalone 139$ service it doesn’t seem to have that much value anymore.
