    What a stinking pile of fucking dogshit!

    I thought I'd try it, I love Netflix and for just another £7 a month the variety would be nice. YOU HAVE TO BUY EPISODES OR SEASONS AS WELL AS PAY YOUR MONTHLY FEE!!! Seriously Amazon, go fuck yourself and die.

    Subscription cancelled.

      Editing … This is what they killed LOVEFILM to do. You used to get Blu-ray/DVD rentals AND streaming for one price. Then Amazon stripped the streaming away and re-released it standalone as Amazon Video, adding in pay-per-view options.

      Editing … It's included as part of Amazon Prime now, so I think most people get it as a side effect of subscribing to that.

      Editing … There are movies/TV included with Prime (there's some section to filter down to stuff you don't have to pay more for), and then there are rental/purchase-only videos. Their Prime library doesn't nearly match Netflix's though--if you like finding indies or obscure films, then Netflix could legit be your only source of movies. It's so easy to get lost in one of their pages for some sub-category of films.

      Editing … Wait, you're telling me all of this stuff: https://www.justwatch.com/uk/provider/amazon-prime-video is only available with Prime membership and additional cost on top of that? That's not how it works in the US or Canada, that's super weird. And assuming the system is the same, that selection is twice as good as ours in Canada. We get fucked haaaaard by our telecommunication companies. From what I read of Now TV, it also looks pretty decent. In Canada our only real alternative to Netflix and Amazon Prime is Crave TV, which believe me is the fucking wooooooorst. Bell's exclusivity contract for Crave is what prevents us from getting HBO Now, slimy monopolizing bastards that they are. I can't wait for smaller startup internet companies to get big enough to undercut the big dogs and slit their proverbial throats.

      Editing … TLDR, solidarity brothers and sisters! Internet and television companies suck, Netflix rules, and we all deserve better streaming services. Except in the States, they seem to be pretty well covered. They may have miserable health care and a psychopathic budget slapped together by a three ring circus of an administration, but at least they can be plenty entertained.

      Editing … Our telecommunication companies are pretty fuckin evil too, and have even lobbied the government to prevent other ISPs from getting lifted up, and are slowly becoming megacorporations through merger after merger, but yeah, Netflix/Hulu/HBO/whatever is pretty cool.

      Editing … Well American telecommunication companies' status as American companies all but guarantees that they're "pretty fuckin' evil." I just especially resent Canadian ISPs keeping us in the dark ages so they can keep charging us exorbitant rates for bloated cable packages. Oh how sweet it was to see them cry when Prime came to Canada. "How are we to compete?" they wailed. BY NOT BEING SHITE, THAT'S HOW!!!
