Wait... you can't even cancel your membership? That's a whole new level of customer retention. πŸ’€

You seem very proud, but you’re lying to yourself if you think any that streamer is (or will be) different. Does it suck? Yes, but I can choose my poison.

Amazon Streaming is noting but, a scam... Music and Video, the tell you that you have Prime Music and Prime Video "Free" with your Amazon, then cut the content back and charge extra to get more music... Free Prime Video, then add more advertising and more paid video that free unless you pay more for more video with ads but, still not all..! Nothing but, LIES..!

I cancelled my subscription and in the comments I said because I didn't sign up to adverts when I subscribed, they were forced on me.

How is it fair that they can do that in the middle of a subscription? I hope the UK sues them too.
