8. I like Amazon Prime. In addition to what posters say above, I get a lot of new "free" music.

I probably listen to 5 to 10 new albums/CDs a month that I wouldn't buy. In addition to all the new releases, including obscure artists, they have a great old catalog.

So for a $115 or so a year, I get decent TV programming, free shipping on orders of stuff I just can't find locally, and a ton of music. That's a pretty good deal.

At $99, Amazon Prime was quite the deal, now that it is $120/year, less so hlthe2b Nov 2018 #7

I thought Hulu too complicated, movies not organized katmondoo Nov 2018 #14

Me too. I like Amazon first then Netflix. Tried Hulu but did not like it, too difficult to find katmondoo Aug 2019 #30

I rotate. Netflix, then Hulu, then Acorn, then Britbox, then Walter Presents. Squinch Nov 2018 #11

Amazon Prime has a monthly subscription, too Taraman Nov 2018 #12

And you can quit after a few months? Thank you! I'll try it! Squinch Nov 2018 #13

That's what I do. Right now I have PBS Masterpiece so I could watch Poldark, but Luciferous Nov 2018 #20

I keep PBS all the time, just $5 a month donation. It's the only one I don't rotate away from. Squinch Nov 2018 #21

I have it most of the time because there are a lot of shows I watch on there, but Luciferous Nov 2018 #22

Same here and to centralize it all at Amazon is great. I had a problem tho with some cancellations emmaverybo Aug 2019 #35

Has anyone tried Hulu Live? procon Aug 2019 #32
