They should also make people watch add bofore they are handed their Amazon Prime order. Unless they pay for the higher tier subscription.
Anyway, good to know that Amazon is finally doing something to fix its fledgling revenue from Prime.

Yarrr!
I'm surprised this didn't happen sooner.
A year of prime costs about the same, or less, than every other ad free streaming service and prime video is only one of its benefits.
Cable is starting to look reasonable with all the subscription services and ads out there now

i stopped using amazøn years ago. shop local & stop killing the economy. it's just gonna get worse the more money you give them
I agree but I can’t really afford to. My local hardware store is great but their prices are higher than big box hardware stores or amazon on many items. For example I replaced an outdoor GFCI outlet that cost $25 local or $18 from big box hardware or amazon. The outlet cover was $10 local or $5 anazon.
It's the same where I live. Do I shop local and spend 2-5 times more for the item or buy it from lowes or Walmart? The kicker is that it is sometimes even the exact same brand and model item.

This is one of the reasons I say no to DRM
I'd like to cancel my Amazon subscription but unfortunately, my entire family is using it to buy stuff off Amazon.
"Commercials in movies and series will be introduced in the U.S., UK, Germany, and Canada in early 2024, followed by France, Italy, Spain, Mexico, and Australia later in the year."
So rest of the world is safe from this at least until 2025?
