Get ready for ads — or pony up an extra $2.99 each month.

I am in the exact same boat. The removal of “free” rotating streaming video content and limiting it to only Amazon funded shows with “free with prime” videos being hosted by 3rd party apps (fuck off, freevee) was bad enough but to start showing ads was the final straw

I cancelled my prime today. $150/yr. I can wait a few extra days for the things I need to order
