Other than Good Omens, and Grand Tour I guess, what's even on Prime Video that's not elsewhere?

It's mind boggling to see the volume of content Amazon has produced that nobody cares about. Rings of Power was $89 million per episode. Citadel was $42 million per episode. There are solutions other than, "Higher fees".

But Upload and The Boys are pretty good.

I really liked Uploaded. Guess it's getting downloaded. And not from Amazon.

If the price was slightly higher and it'd remove ads on twitch, I might buy it

eh, I don't really care. It's a gimme with prime. TBH I rarely watch anything on it. The only thing I'm watching right now is the current season of Reacher.

Fortunately a VPN is like 30 quid a year. Jellyfin and Radarr are my jam now.

I've kept Netflix and Disney+ for now. I was looking to cancel one for a while, and Amazon made that an easy choice. There's fucking nothing on it at the best of times.
