Dumb. You pay for Prime. You pay extra for Prime Video. You now pay even more extra for Prime Video to not show you ads.

This is a company worth $1.5 trillion dollars (with a founder worth $175 billion dollars)....yet they can't help themselves but triple-dip? Yeah, no.

Arr, matey, I hear the high seas calling.

What does the market cap of the company or the founders net worth have anything to do with the unit economics of operating a streaming business? Netflix, Hulu and others are all exploring charging more or introducing ads. Does that not factor into your analysis at all??

It's like a Ferrari stopping in a tire shop and the owner trying to haggle $10 off the service.

The reason they own a Ferrari might be because they're good at money management including negotiation.

The local "cheap" supermarket (Lidl) to me has plenty of >€70k vehicles in the carpark.
