Can confirm. The stuff I'd watch on Prime is behind a paywall, the free series and movies don't interest me. Therefore I'm using Prime only for shipping and that's it.
The app's UI is dogshit.
They sometimes have good movies and tv shows but it's such a pain in the ass to find them.
Otherwise the only time I go onto Prime is because I know something specific is on Prime.
Clarksons farm and top gear is all I used it for, only because i happened to know it was on there and so never bothered torrenting it. It’s probably behind a pay wall these days though.
It has ads on it by default. I will NEVER watch anything that has ads on it. Amazon puts out pure shit anti-kino, but if I want to watch it, I'll download it, ad-free.
Streaming ads are like 1min tops. On Amazon its only at the beginning.
On FreeVee its like 30sec ads every 20min its really not bad as much as I hate to admit it.
Even Tubi isn't that bad. Only streaming platform where the ads bug me is YouTube. And that's only because if you pause for more than a couple minutes it gives you an extended ad when you unpause.
YT is awful. The ads are long and random. At least FreeVee wait until a good time for a stop. I usually watch YT on my PC with adblock but the rare times I have to watch YT on my phone is fricking horrid. They are basically bullying you into paying for Premium
Enable developer mode on the fire tv and install kodi or jellyfin

You can also install https://smarttubeapp.github.io/ which has a built-in ad blocker.
I just use amazon prime to get jerkoff toys shipped to me fast and say it stopped working so I get a full refund >buy sex doll >say it ripped >ask for return >you keep it >they give full refund
my degenerate coworker got a free Apple watch doing this. >ordered watch >said it got stolen off porch >Amazon sent another one >he sold the 2nd watch on ebay for $50 less than normal price
I got it with a promotion and use it daily. I watched much kino with it. Any recommendations?
I also started watching Community which is good sitcom but I stopped because a mixed race relationship started to develop. There is also a sci fi series iirc about time travel that will leave and I wonder if it's worth a watch.
Also they started putting ads, but so far they're no annoying.
idk if they fixed it yet but there was this bug with the ads where if you skipped them the movie would break or something i forget. skipping during ads also skips the movie forward so you have to skip backwards after the ads to not miss anything and lord help you if you go too far back because the ads will start playing from the start again.
also the subtitles are ALWAYS timed incorrectly because they dont account for the ad time so 5 seconds of ads = subtitles are 5 seconds early
point is it was a pain in the ass to use
youtube usually has the same stuff (as far as free movies go) and works way better
Literally cancelled it because I can count the number of shows I've watched on it on one hand over the past five years. I mostly kept it for free Twitch games but those have been shit too for months. It's 100% useless unless you order tons of shit from Amazon all the time. Not even the free books are that good. Save like fricking 2 dollars on a Grub Hub order. How can a service offer so much bland borderline useless shit?
>Literally cancelled it
lol you sound like the boomers on Facebook. No one has it for streaming. You have it for fast and free shipping. Do you not order anything online?
no, that's you. Amazon consistently has the best prices. That's why they are killing all brick and mortar stores and other online retailers. Plus the fast shipping, you cant beat it.

You haven't posted anything good.
I let my prime membership expire, got messages for weeks saying there was no card on file to renew it, then they tried to charge a card I had "removed" from their system. frick amazon.

When I want to watch something I just make a new email and use it for free for 30 days
How do you get around the credit card requirement? I only have so many of my own, including prepaid gift cards.
i make a new one with a digital bank every time and they accept it
Which banks do you use?

it's still worth it for the free shipping in a household of 4, but for streaming with ads, vpn and pirate is better
streaming ads are nothing like tv commericals. i try to watch regular tv and it's fricking ridiculous.

>anything worth watching is on freevee anyways
yeah frick that. the good stuff is on freevee and they are worse than cable. every 5 minuten you have to see ads
does it just time out halfway through a kino like Tubi
I pay for Amazon Prime for shipping just out of convenience, but haven't watched Prime Video once since they introduced ads on a paid service.
Frick their anti-consoomer practices, even if it cost 1 dollar more a month. I'd rather torrent their shows
It's one of those common shitty apps that only really function with iphones, like crunchyroll. Disney makes the best app that I've seen.

Another handy trick
>buy something
>use it for years
>buy it again
>return the old in the new box
wont they flag your account?
I've done this
The trick is to make a new account every month so they wont notice
Anything "non returnable" is free

Happens on every service. I was in the middle of Highlander season 2 and Tubi suddenly just yeeted it.

I order from the place with the best deal not just whatever is at the top of the google search zoom zoom.
>I order from the place with the best deal
So...Amazon? You must not live in the US
You don't even know how ignorant you are do you?
no, that's you. Amazon consistently has the best prices. That's why they are killing all brick and mortar stores and other online retailers. Plus the fast shipping, you cant beat it.
compare Amazon prices to the prices of the same items on AliExpress - or is AliExpress blocked in USA?
>AliExpress
poor gay. Cheap ass chinese knockoff shit
>The Boys
>Jack Ryan/Reacher
>Fallout
>LOTR
>Invincible
How is this not easily the best streaming service for 12-35 year old males?
