Amazon prime shows ads for other prime shows occasionally and it just pisses me off. I'm seeing less of them, so maybe they got the message.
Prime is also very much a superficial copy of the Netflix interface.
- typetehcodez 8y agoThis reason alone (the ads to other Prime shows) is why I cancelled my Prime subscription and also was the final nail in the coffin on why I stopped using amazon all together. Amazon started to piss me off when they turned my amazon kindle, and the later my amazon app on my android phone into advertisement space.
- r00fus 8y agoPrime Video is just a teaser for Amazon Video. I can't let my kids use it because they'll either buy or complain about not being able to buy the non-free stuff. It's a mess for that reason alone.
- makecheck 8y agoPre-ads on services also don’t play well at all with failures. Even a short crappy promo for 15 seconds gets old if it keeps replaying the crappy promo every time my actual show fails to play. So the experience goes: $ad, $error, $same_ad, $same_error, and before you know it you’re muttering about how much you’re over-paying.
