There's more to it. I love Prime and have had it since it'd debut. We still order goods of amazon weekly, if not more. However, when I first got Prime, the landscape for competition was much different than today. Amazon's success has driven competitors to follow suit and offer free / expedited shipping, reducing the value of Prime. Now they are increasing the cost and justifying it by tacking on extra services.
That's great if you use those services, but consumers that don't are seeing an increase in price and a reduction in value.
I'm personally not sure if I'll renew given I'm on of those in the middle.
