Isn't it free 2-day delivery? I thought if you still wanted 1-day delivery, you'd pay less, but still extra.

As far I know, it's free 2-day delivery with 1-day delivery reduced to $3.99. I'm pretty sure Prime is more for people who order from Amazon on a regular basis and is still acquiring titles for their streaming service, which isn't up to par with Netflix but is a nice feature.

Hi LTT commuinty,

 

so I got my membership at amazon prime now. I realized that not everything is free to watch, is this normal or is amazon taking more money than e.g. netflix?

I live in germany so netflix is not here yet, but will be in future.

 

Ty!

If you buy a lot of things from Amazon and use the video feature then its well worth it.

 

If you have Amazon Prime just for video streaming then its not worth it.

I love Amazon Prime. I'm all about instant gratification, so if I can bridge that time I don't have my item with the free 2 day shipping PLUS cancel Netflix, I'm happy.
