I wouldn't consider Netflix and Amazon Prime Video comparable. Netflix has around 10x the content whenever I look whereas amazon has The Grand Tour, The Man in the High Castle and not much else. I can't see many people having Prime and skipping a Netflix subscription so it doesn't really work as a saving it's more of a nice to have bonus.

I consider them fairly comparable: * They both have a very large corpus of garbage shows and films. * They each have a small handful of quality shows and movies that shifts as their licensing deals evolve and expire. * Both of them are increasingly bolstering their content with self-produced content that is mostly of dubious quality. At least in my household we seem to use each service roughly equally (I'd say 40/40 with the other 20% going to HBO now and no other cable, tv, or video consumption). You're also not giving Amazon a fair shake if all you see of value is The Man in the High Castle and The Grand Tour, I clearly get a lot of value out of my subscription and I have yet to watch either of those. Right now I see they have all of House, Sons of Anarchy, Star Trek (most/all versions?), The Americans, and many more; dozens of episodes of I Love Lucy, Mr. Rogers, and Sesame Street; and some great movies like 1984, Spaceballs, Charlotte's Web, the Indiana Jones movies, (all the?) Star Treks, etc.
