I just canceled my Amazon Prime membership, something I was almost afraid of. Phew, it's nice to have that off my back.

I've been shopping less and less at Amazon anyway and barely used prime video, so I'll probably won't even notice the difference.

@guest @cronenthal And like so many pointed out: you don't own those movies. As painful as that realization might be. You bought a license to watch them for as long as Amazon deems it beneficial to their bottomline to offer them. They pulled the same shit with books.

And I too am of the conviction that if buying isn't owning, then downloading isn't stealing.
