I love it. I signed on when all they offered was the shipping, but the prime music and video services have grown to the point where they are genuinely attractive features as well. If all they offered was the shipping I'd still use it though, so I consider the whole of it to be a pretty sweet deal.

2015 - 148 Orders $13,302.90

Wait where do you see the dollar amount you spent in a year?

We got Prime in Sept and it's well worth it for us. We don't order a ton of stuff but I like the video and streaming service. Works flawlessly on my TV and PC. I find we tend to order more than we used since we now have free two day shipping.

Parents have offered to cover our Prime fee every year as a gift so now we'll never give it up.

I buy my chainsaws, bourbon and women on Prime.

I don't know how many years I've had it...originally it was just for shipping and I split it with some members of my family but since only the primary account can use it for video I've just paid for it myself for the last 2 years.

I love it. Most weeks don't pass without at least one delivery and I've really enjoyed some of the shows they made and movies they've carried. Easily worth the cost to me.

Highlight the column and Excel adds it up for you. It is in small numbers on the bottom right of the page.

My Prime membership came up for renewal and I passed this year. I my sign up again later.

To many things just aren't what they use to be with the service. Now second day means by 8PM on the second day. In my mind, that is basically 3 day shipping. "Ships with Amazon Prime may require and extra 1 or 2 days to process", etc. Things have just gotten wonky.

Add to that the mediocre UI of Prime Video, the bloom has really gone off the rose with Amazon Prime IMHO.

Damn. Not bad. Where do live? Amazon opened a new warehouse just a couple towns over from me and they've never offered me same day delivery, even for Amazon fulfilled items.

I would probably bite the bullet and get prime if I didn't live in NY. Instead I rely more on newegg. 🙁

Prime is good for buying content. Not so much the free content ATM.

In the past, I really enjoyed alot of the content. It got worse, IMO. As did the interface. They used the firestick interface which is glitchy and slow.

I'm debating re-subscribing to Prime at the end of January. I order maybe twice a month. The faster shipping is nice, but not that critical to me. I can generally wait a few extra days to receive that coffee maker or garden hose. I never use the cheap overnight shipping option, and I don't watch any of the video content (well, I do, but it's much easier to just torrent it).

Mine is due toward the end of the month. I figure that at the very least I can wait until I want to place another order where I really want two day shipping.

To many things just aren't what they use to be with the service. Now second day means by 8PM on the second day. In my mind, that is basically 3 day shipping.

Isn't that more of a factor of the local delivery service? I don't think anything I've ever ordered with 2-day Prime shipping has actually shipped by air. It's always UPS ground, which tends to always be delivered to me by noon.

Add to that the mediocre UI of Prime Video, the bloom has really gone off the rose with Amazon Prime IMHO.

My UI is BitTorrent and Kodi.
