I don’t use Amazon much anymore anyway, because the products are overwhelmed with cheap, poor quality trash you couldn’t peddle on alibaba and completely worthless, largely faked reviews and ratings. I order once or twice a year some replacement cable or adapter I can’t find anywhere else reasonably quick, but that’s pretty much it, so canceling over this ad bullshit doesn’t really hurt me much.
Next on the list is my Netflix sub, which I largely use just for oldtrek reruns as second screen background noise while I use my computer. I could probably, uh, procure those shows fairly easy, or splurge on a collectors edition and would still save money.
Check your local public libary, a lot of them have DVDs you can check out for free.
Mine also partners with streaming services like hoopla and kanopy so I can stream like 10 movies per month.
There’s a used media shop down the street and I’m contemplating getting dvd/bluray box sets of my favorites so that I have offline media available.
Go ahead, I did the same and I really don't miss Netflix. I should also mention I have crappy internet, so it's much better/easier to just download good quality vidéo files overnight than sit through a constantly-buffering 240p stream
