Just cancelled my prime membership because of this, I encourage all of you to do the same.

I use prime mainly for Prime gaming, which gives me my money back.

I use it for shopping. I live in the country side, not a lot of options around here, and in a country where the concept of free shipping does not exist. So Prime saves me a lot. I barely use prime video though...

Was going to say the same. You get so much shit from Prime Gaming. Given, half of it is actual shit that you’ll never use. But if you play games on PC, it’s something worth looking into.
