Received this email. Blech.

Dear Prime member,

We are writing to you today about an upcoming change to your Prime Video experience. Starting January 29, Prime Video movies and TV shows will include limited advertisements. This will allow us to continue investing in compelling content and keep increasing that investment over a long period of time. We aim to have meaningfully fewer ads than linear TV and other streaming TV providers. No action is required from you, and there is no change to the current price of your Prime membership. We will also offer a new ad-free option for an additional $2.99 per month* that you can sign up for here.

... And the price comparison moves to consider ONLY the ad-free, better-than-cable offering.

With-ads can DIAF.

You can get all the content they offer ad-free elsewhere.

So screw it.
