I am canceling Prime for my household. Use Prime services all of the time, but by the end of the month, it will be gone.

I have a Firestick, I am migrating my preferences to Roku for the interim and looking at the alternatives mentioned above.

I pay for my 88-year-old parents Netflix account. I will keep that because she watches cooking and sewing shows and my father watches military movies/shows.

“Amazon has been a lifesaver when I could not find certain parts in stores that I could only get on Prime.”

Why is Prime necessary to find items on Amazon? I don’t get it.

I gave up TV in the 80s. I do have free antenna TV to watch Columbo every Saturday though.

“Dear Prime member,

Cancelled my Prime yesterday. I rarely buy things online and If I really need it checking the box triggers the prime again which I then can cancel. Kept it on through the fall for Thursday Night Football.

YouTube Premium. Worth the $15 not to get interrupted by advts. Which unlike standard TV shows just happen randomly in the middle of shows.

I keep YouTube music on in the background while I work. I have not gotten my 2023 report, but in 2022 I “watched” 41,000 minutes.

Pluto tv has this one gay gay gay ad that has men kissing and hugging. I do not know what the product is but I know that Pluto tv execs like the money they are getting from it. It is on all sorts of channels like Gunsmoke, This Old House, Stargate, Star Trek, Sitcom, Classic tv etc.

I try my best to avoid Pluto. The majority of their commercials are about gay people and I am not interested in watching the channel because of that fact.

My nephew is an executive with that company.

That side of the family are fully-engulfed LibTards. Their eldest daughter (36) still lives at home and works at the local Apple Store as and waitress. She has a Masters in Music.

The nephew works for Pluto. I have not spoken to him in over 25 years.

I want to make some changes due to the stupid costs. But not during Basketball Season. After March Madness is over — then I can deal with it.
