I used to feel this exact way, and I do still think there are more than a few of their services that are pretty paltry.
But with Prime video, not only do they have highly praised original content, they fill in gaps that Netflix and Hulu have, with content from the HBO catalog, as well as TV shows that Netflix doesn't carry.
Add to that, the shipping for me, while not perfect, any time I've done free same day shipping, it's there.
My only request would be that I would gladly trade some of my benefits (Amazon music for example, along with others) in exchange for some type of access to audible.com content.
It would be nice if you could configure these services a la carte, but I doubt that's in Amazon's financial interest.
- alexcroox 9y agoI use Netflix all the time, every time I check Amazon video the landing page looks the same, no new shows or movies. In fact my video landing page has looked the same for a good 2 months now. I'm not sure if they haven't added anything new or they just suck at promoting the new additions...
- natecavanaugh 9y agoI 100% agree! Every app of theirs show the same stuff. I can't tell yet if theyre copying Netflix on their initial landing page on a consistent basis, but I feel like they've let some aspect of discovery escape them. Overall, I do love their library, but they could evangelize it in such a better way.
