I would agree except inflation has not increased 20% since 2005. Many Prime 2-day shipping items cost more than the same items without it. The Prime video library is sub-par to Netflix as well.

The CPI inflation calculator actually puts total inflation since 2005 at almost exactly 20%: http://data.bls.gov/cgi-bin/cpicalc.pl?cost1=100&year1=2005&year2=2014 http://data.bls.gov/cgi-bin/cpicalc.pl?cost1=100&year1=2005&... I can't argue with the other parts though.

    I agree. I figured you were right, but verified just to be sure, and how about that.
