I detest Bezos but Amazon Prime is tough to beat. Being able to easily subscribe to Peacock long enough to watch Yellowstone and then cancel when we were done was great. There is so much content available with the basic Prime that Netflix is pointless.

Except it's loaded with ads unless you want to pay extra. And YouTube has started offering movies to me for free + free (instead of subscription + free) if I want to sit through ads.

We didn't subscribe to Prime for the movies, but for the delivery rather than waiting on the post office to bring the Amazon products, but if they keep going up on the price I'll have to reconsider that.

Amazon is good overall, I also have prime but utilize the music and podcasts that are part of the whole thing...plus the free deliveries ....Big box stores need to offer the selections Amazon has at our fingertips or they will start folding. They can offer them on a website and you can pick up at the store ...whats on the shelf isn’t going to cut it anymore for a savy shopper who looks before making any purchases. IMHO

“Being able to easily subscribe to Peacock long enough to watch Yellowstone and then cancel.... Exactly what I did. Now I have the back story to all the new spin off shows.

yeah, i love the convenience of starting and stopping premium subscriptions on amazon, and detest having to manage independent accounts for other premium channels, particularly whatever difficulty there may be for cancellation, like “oh you HAVE TO CALL TO CANCEL” ...
