Gotta love it. Or .... just cancel which is my answer more often than not.
My wife will want to keep prime for the shipping but guess what - it's not 2 days anymore most of the time and if you combine orders you get free shipping ... so if you order enough to make Prime worth it you just have to think a tiny bit to realize prime is not worth it.
I hate streaming and all the daft people who think it's wonderful and futuristic when it's just new but terrible. I can't stand ads and least of all breaking up content. I guess a lot of the content is so bad you just hope for entertaining ads.

This is what I don't understand. Introduce an ad-supported tier if you want... but don't replace the ad-free tier price with the ad-supported one and raise the price of the one without. The ad-supported tiers should always be introduced at a LOWER price because they're getting the ad revenue plus the subscription price. Greedy jerks.
