Lol its trillion dollar company. What they are doing is a tactic to check if consumers will leave their streaming service. They know few people will leave but they don't care however most people won't and will be paying more that usual.

Well it's a stupid move because it's bundled with everything. I am not going to pay for add free, I am just going to cancel after Christmas shopping is done. That means I will be less likely to buy from Amazon in the future. It's not like anything comes in 2 days anymore anyway.
