    But my point stands. It was added as a bonus. It’s not owed, it wasn’t apart of the deal signed with Amazon. You’re paying for a membership it comes with faster or free shipping and a guarantee of those two things. It has nothing to do with the streaming service

      It has everything to do with the streaming service. Because they can’t sell as many prime memberships without it.

      It’s not a bonus. They weren’t selling as many memberships as they wanted so they had to make the deal better by adding the service.

      No streaming service. No membership.
