Despite having paid for Netflix, Prime and the occasional other service I still watched downloaded content off the internet for years because it's less hassle and has no ads. Every so often I would dip into the streaming services I was paying for because the experience became easier, better and more content I wanted was available so there was a reason for me to use Amazon Prime Video...but over time I became concerned that I am paying for Prime and getting all this "free" stuff without being funnelled like livestock into a narrow pathway to have my eyelids taped open to watch those quality ads I so wanted...but now that they're adding in the ads I can rest my conscience.
This is nothing short of a Christmas miracle. Thank god, his son the baby jesus and of course Jeff Bezos that so uncompromisingly held the customer at the heart of it all.
Happy new, Prime free, year to all.
