    Right, but they said they cancelled because they started including ads. I’m confused why someone would cancel their prime shipping program over ads on a video service that was included as a bonus. Just stop watching the platform and keep your free shipping.

      It’s not free shipping, you’re paying $140/year. Worth it to some, but if you don’t order much it’s worth cancelling to cut costs.

        True. It also covers the cost of returns too though, which can be very valuable if you order online a lot. Like you said though, it’s probably not worth much to people who don’t frequently order online through Amazon.
